Thank Those Who Stood for Principles and Voted Against Fiscal Cliff Bill
So it’s official – the House and Senate passed a fiscal cliff deal that raises taxes, kicks the can down the road on spending reductions, and shows that Congress just isn’t serious about stopping overspending.
In the midst of this, however, five Senators and 151 Representatives opposed the legislation because of its tax increases and lack of spending discipline. While it’s important to hold our elected officials accountable when they fail, it’s just as important to praise them when they do well.
Here is the list of Senators and Representatives who opposed the fiscal cliff deal because of their Tea Party-minded principles. We urge you to call them and let them know how much you appreciate their principled stance (Listed by State):
