STOP the Cuts to Poor and Working People! Tax the Rich!

Poor and working people in Minnesota have been dealing with the devastating effects of state budget cuts for over a year now. Meanwhile, the cheating corporations and the richest in this state have been rolling in money from years of tax breaks. Now Pawlenty and politicians want to balance the new budget deficit on the backs of poor and working Minnesotans again! It's time to change this!
Join us at our protest on the opening day of MN's legislative session. Say NO to Any cuts to poor and working people! Tell politicians to show support for bills to undo the worst welfare and healthcare cuts in history - and the bill that closes tax loopholes for cheating corporations!
