The Issue
After the House passed a budget cutting more than $61 billion from 2010 levels in spending for federal programs and agencies, Senate Democrats began complaining that debate over the deep cuts could force a shutdown of the government.

Meanwhile, proposed cuts on a number of state budgets have triggered a “statist uprising” with unions and the Obama political machine fanning the flames. Despite what is happening on Capitol Hill and across the nation, one thing is clear -- the Left will NOT tolerate any cuts in government -- federal or state. And they are committed to using their “statist uprising” strategy to expand their agenda.

The Action
Unless grassroots citizens demand deep, substantial cuts are made to bring our federal budget under control, Obama’s statist “print and spend” economic plan will bring our nation to ruin. Grassfire Nation has launched this petition to rally and mobilize tens of thousands of grassroots citizens who are challenging the “statist uprising” and demanding no compromise in cutting the budget.

URGENT UPDATE! Grassfire Nation has delivered more than 60,000 petitions to Wisconsin governor Scott Walker and 19 Wisconsin State Senate Republicans in a massive grassroots show of support for their “get tough” stance on balancing the state budget.

Grassfire Nation is also preparing to deliver petitions to Capitol Hill offices supporting the deep cuts made by the House, and demanding additional “deep cuts” are made to greatly reduce federal spending.

The Petition States:

As a concerned citizen of the United States, I am signing this petition to demonstrate my deep concern over the federal Government’s out of control spending habits as well as efforts by the Left and unions to hijack state governments in an organized opposition to spending restraints.

Following the midterm elections, Americans issued a clear mandate to curb fiscal irresponsibility at all levels of government and we expect our elected legislators to respond accordingly. As a result:

I demand the Senate not only consider passing the House spending cuts as contained in the Continuing Resolution Bill but also use those cuts as a jumping off point in seeking out additional cost-cutting measures.

I support the efforts by Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and other elected officials in the 50 states to bring a responsible approach to government spending in order to balance our budgets and restore fiscal sanity.

The irresponsible approach taken by President Obama and his administration to simply print more money is both reckless and irresponsible. I will not tolerate one party or the other politicizing this crisis, but rather it is time for the parties to roll up their sleeves and commit to executing real fiscally responsible solutions that curb the out-of-control spending habits of our federal government.
