Action Alert

Polls released since the debt ceiling agreement was reached make it clear the majority of people think it was a bad deal. In fact, the majority of voters in at least one poll supported cuts in defense spending, raising taxes on people with annual incomes of more than $250,000, and opposed cuts to programs for the poor.  Yet the deal protects military spending and ignores tax cuts – which both helped create the deficit in the first place.

Please send this email to your governor and state legislators encouraging them to watch our video and support AFSC’s proposals to address the use solitary confinement in U.S. prisons.
