<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Every night on the news, we
hear about the looming fiscal cliff – and that the only way to avert disaster is
to pass a “grand bargain.” Let’s be clear – this grand bargain is a grand
swindle because it continues to balance the deficit on the backs of workers, the
poor, seniors, people with disabilities and children while corporations and the
wealthy run away with billions.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt"><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Across the country, unions,
community groups, faith organizations, and beyond are standing up to say – Fair
Deal or No Deal. As part of our <B>Caring Across Generations</B>
campaign in which we are working to “protect what we have earned and create what
we need,” Jobs with Justice joins this growing movement. We know that a
“grand bargain” is NOT the only solution; that corporations and the wealthy can
pay higher taxes, the government can create jobs, and our working and middle
class communities do not have to continue to face massive cuts to the little
economic security we have left. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P><B><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">As many of you know,
December 10<SUP>th</SUP> is a national day of action to urge our Senators to
stand firm</SPAN></B><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'"> on
raising taxes on the wealthy while protecting Medicaid, Medicare and Social
Security. Actions will be organized across the country – and many
more are needed! <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

action or support in planning one. Please also let us know if you
