Our leaders must hold children and their families harmless in deficit reduction negotiations. What good is a sound fiscal future if our children are not prepared to take it over? http://bit.ly/HoldChildrenHarmless
Children did not create the deficit, and so they should not be impacted by plans to balance the budget. Sign this petition asking our President Obama and Speaker Boehner to take children and their families off the table. http://bit.ly/HoldChildrenHarmless
If we've given our children a strong and safe foundation, then they will come together to work out their differences. They won't all agree on everything, but they will trust the process of our forefathers and press on to protect their own future: their children. Ask President Obama and Speaker Boehner to protect our children during deficit reduction. http://bit.ly/HoldChildrenHarmless
CWLA's Linda Spears signed because, "The days and weeks ahead are a critical time to ensure that this nation maintains basic services to protect children and strengthen families. I hope you will join this campaign to help children get what they need!" Will you join us? http://bit.ly/HoldChildrenHarmless
