President Obama just threw down the gauntlet.
In case you just missed the President’s speech from the White House Rose Garden this morning, I wanted to make sure you saw this key quote:
“It is wrong that in the United States of America a teacher or a nurse or a construction worker who earns $50,000 should pay higher tax rates than somebody pulling in $50 million.
Anybody who says we can’t change the tax code to correct that, anyone who has signed some pledge to protect every single tax loophole so long as they live, they should be called out.”

The next 24 hours are critical.
Moments after President Obama’s speech, Speaker Boehner resorted to his same old Tea Party talking points mischaracterizing the President’s plan to create jobs and ensure that billionaires and Big Oil companies pay their fair share.
We’ve set a goal of raising $1 million from grassroots Democrats before the FEC deadline to show we have what it takes to fight for President Obama’s jobs plan and take on Republicans who put special tax breaks for the wealthy before their constituents back home.

Enough with the Tea Party games. If Republicans want to stick to their “my way or the highway” strategy, then it’s up to us to show them the off-ramp.
