I was very disappointed in the proposed federal budget announced last night. This budget does not represent my priorities for what is important for our country right now. What is does is enshrined the backwards looking policies of an extreme element in our nation; policies that would take us back to the gilded age where the rich kept getting richer and the rest of us got a lump of coal. I am especially disheartened that over 1 million Americans will be thrown off of federal unemployment benefits in order to keep the tax cuts for the wealthy. Please sign and pass along the petition to restore federal unemployment benefits
