Due to recent events, including:
The leaked publication of Administration memoranda ordering responsible personnel not to minimize the negative impacts of sequestration in order to preserve rhetorical continuity,

Outrages like the mass release of thousands of prisoners prior even to the implementation of sequestration,

We hereby petition the Obama administration to fulfill its Constitutional repsonsibilities in a just and prudent fashion by minimizing the negative impact of this budget cut, rather than maximizing it for rhetorical effect and political calculation.
