Senators - PASS A BUDGET

Just received an e-mail from Senator Durbin about the flammability of PJs.
What about hearing from the Senator about the BUDGET???

Open letter to all the Senators:

Senators, 

As a Citizen of the USA, I demand that you stop your personal political infighting and
 PASS A BUDGET. A budget that seriously reduces the debt. You know that as the debt 
increases, the debt service (The interest on the debt) grows. 
And when the interest rates begin to rise --- as they will--- we need to have a maximum
debt of about 17% of GDP. And you need to address this BEFORE the Nov election!!!

Who really cares about whether a fabric is or is not flammable? What we care about is 
allowing business to create real new jobs and reducing the debt. To that end, we need to
reduce the new rules and regulations, trim obamacare of its tax burden and make a 
major reduction in the debt by about 2% to 3% per year for several years. And we need to
reduce taxes for everyone. And we need to stop pitting one group of people against
another group of people. We are all Americans.

And the thought of the YUAN becoming a reserve currency just makes me angry at all
the congress persons who foolishly spent my tax dollars while enriching themselves
on "inside deals." Do not de-value the dollar just to pay off our debt and make all
Americans poor in the process. That is treason.

Why would anyone want to divide the American people other then for their personal gain
at the expense of the American people. We voted you into office to SERVE THE
CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES - not feed your pockets and do nothing but
raise money for your next election.

What are we paying you for if not to SERVE THE PEOPLE??? 

My friends (both Dems & Reps) all agree that you should pass a budget. Since the House
has repeatedly passed a budget, that budget deserves a vote - yea or nay. Then you
can "adjust the budget" and send it back to the House. 

The Senate is HIDING from the American people by not passing a budget. Allow me to 
remind the Senate that the Senate HAS AN OBLIGATION TO PASS A BUDGET 
EVERY YEAR. Failing to pass a budget shows contempt for the American people.
Again, your job is to pass a budget. Just do it!

That's the way I and my friends feel...
