Eliminating ALL Pay and Benefits to the ALL members of the US Congress until they solve the Fiscal Cliff Crisis.

Created by L.M. on December 27, 2012

This petition calls for ALL pay and benefits to be suspended for all Senators and Congressman and Congresswomen until such a time that they pass promised BALANCED approach to preventing the Fiscal Cliff which they created. A balanced approach will be realized when the ratio of tax increases to real spending cuts is at least 2 to 1 or greater. If taxes go up on any portion of the public, it must be accompanied by real cuts in spending to include Entitlement Programs, Defense, Social Security and Medicaid. Since the Congress and Senate have failed to pass reforms that they called for, they should not be payed or receive any benefits for failing to do the jobs they were voted into office to complete.
