Call Congress to Oppose Any Reform That Taxes Health Benefits





Call Congress to Oppose Any Reform That Taxes Health Benefits

"If you like your current plan, you will be able to keep it. Let me repeat
that: If you like your plan, you'll be able to keep it."
President Barack Obama, July 21, 2009
http://projects.washingtonpost.com/obama-speeches/speech/54/


"But let me perfectly clear, because I know you'll hear the same old
claims that rolling back these tax breaks means a massive tax increase on
the American people: if your family earns less than $250,000 a year, you
will not see your taxes increased a single dime. I repeat: not one single
dime."
President Barack Obama, Address to Joint Session of Congress, Feb. 24,
2009

“So by taxing so-called Cadillac plans, the Senate bill would actually end
up taxing the Chevy plans of a large portion of the middle class.” Robert
Reich

National Phone Blitz on Congress

The AFL-CIO is calling on union members nation-wide to deluge members of
Congress with phone calls on Wednesday, January 13, 2010, demanding "no
tax on benefits."

TOLL FREE DIAL-IN: 1-877-3-AFL-CIO (1-877-323-5246)

We urge you to call your Congressperson and urge him or her to oppose any
healthcare reform that taxes our benefits.
