Vote for Middle Class Tax Extension
By Victor Tiffany (Contact)
To be delivered to: Rep. Daniel Maffei (NY-24) and The United States House of Representatives
Petition Statement
We urge Congressman Richard Hanna to sign Minority Leader Pelosi's discharge petition and vote to extend middle class taxes before Dec 31.
Petition Background
The Senate has passed an extension of the middle class tax cuts, but the GOP controlled House has refused to allow a vote on the measure. If there is no vote prior to Dec 31, then taxes for all will go back up. The President has asked the House to take up the Senate bill and indicated he would sign it. Minority Leader Pelosi has initiated a discharge petition that requires 218 signatures to force a vote--that means that all Democrats and 25 Republicans need to sign this discharge petition before a vote can take place.
There are currently 572 signatures
