Friend -- 

Today, because congressional Republicans refused to act, 
devastating budget cuts known as the sequester are going into effect. 

They're self-inflicted wounds, and they didn't have to happen. 

Congress can stop all of this right away -- and pursue a balanced 
approach to deficit reduction.

That's what the vast majority of Americans want, and yesterday, 
more than 100,000 Americans called on Congress to be reasonable 
about the budget.

Friend --

Brace yourself.

If congressional Republicans don't act by tomorrow, we're 
going to be hit by a series of devastating, automatic budget 
cuts called the sequester.

It's a sledgehammer to the budget, our economy, and 
millions of Americans across the country -- and the most 
frustrating part? It doesn't have to happen.

The majority of Americans support President Obama's 
balanced approach to deficit reduction -- add your name 
if you do, too:

So far, congressional Republicans are refusing to 
compromise -- all because they don't want to close tax 
loopholes for millionaires, billionaires, vacation homes, 
and corporate jets. Seriously.

This has very real consequences.

On the chopping block are 10,000 teaching jobs, more than 
70,000 kids' spots in Head Start, $35 million for local fire 
departments, $43 million to make sure seniors don't go 
hungry, and access to nutrition assistance for 600,000 
women and their families. That's just a few of the things we'll 
lose.

President Obama has put forth a balanced deficit reduction 
plan with smart spending cuts that protect the critical 
investments needed to strengthen middle-class families and 
our economy.

We need to send a strong signal about where Americans 
stand on this issue.

P.S. -- If Congress fails to act, this fight doesn't end tomorrow. We'll 
need to put even more pressure on Republicans to stop these 
budget cuts and pass a balanced plan. Join this fight now:
