Citizen Petition to Elected Leaders:
Citizen Petition: "Cut Government Spending Or Shut It Down!"

Petition Sponsor:  Grassfire Nation

The Issue
Congress is facing a major showdown by Friday, April 8, over whether to cut just $60 billion out of the bloated and obscene federal budget. At a time when the government is running a $1.6 TRILLION deficit this year alone, $60 billion is chump change. That’s why patriotic citizens are saying, "Cut government spending or shut the government down!"

The Action
 Grassfire Nation has launched this petition to give citizens who are sick and tired of political games the opportunity to personally weigh in on federal budgetary crisis. This petition supports a government shutdown if members of Congress cannot make significant cuts in federal spending this year. If you want to tell your members of Congress to "Cut Government Spending Or Shut It Down!", sign below.

EMERGENCY PETITION DELIVERY: Grassfire Nation will begin hand-delivery of petitions to key leaders in both the House and Senate beginning on Wednesday, April 6. Deadline to be included in this delivery is midnight Tuesday (April 5).
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: 

  1. 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. 

  2. If Congress cannot agree on very minimal cuts such as the $60 billion now proposed for this fiscal year, then I say, "Shut It Down And Go Home!" 
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.
