In the next few weeks, I believe one of the most importantvotes of our political lifetimes will occur when the House and Senate each vote on a Balanced Budget Amendment to the Constitution. The stage isset for a remarkable victory that could help save our economy and end the tax-spend-borrow addiction in Washington.
For years, our deficits have been soaring out of control. President Obama has proposed a "budget" that will stillallow a $1.6 trillion deficit. And Republicans are hardly better, with their budget calling for "only" a $1.5 trillion deficit.
The threats to our prosperity and freedom aren't hard to see. Just look all around us, everyday, at the news coming from Washington. More bailouts, trillion dollar "stimulus" schemes, huge new debt burdens for our children,higher taxes – it never ends.
You and I have a chance to help put a stop to these abuses ofpower. And because the Balanced Budget legislation is a Constitutional Amendment, we don't need President Obama to sign it. Congress alonecan fix this problem.
But without your involvement, I don't think it will happen.
Please see this message from my friend Matt Hawes, Vice President of Campaign for Liberty, so you canlearn more about their battle to help pass a Balanced Budget Amendment in Congress. Time is short, so please take action today.
For Liberty,
Rand Paul
U.S. Senator, Kentucky
