Here’s the bottom line for New York residents on the Debt
Super Committee which convenes as soon as next week.

New York is not represented on the committee,
meaning New York citizens are facing taxation
without representation.

One of the fundamental principles of our American form of
government is that YOU have representation in decisions
of taxation.

Remember the FIRST TEA PARTY?

Starting next week, citizens in New York and 38 other states
will not be represented on the Super Committee and will
therefore have no voice in the Committee’s plan which pundits
now agree will include tax increases.

Next Thursday, Grassfire Nation will be delivering petitions
to Congress from citizens who oppose the Debt Super Committee.

If you are concerned about New York citizens facing “no
taxation without representation,” go here to sign the petition
opposing the unconstitutional Super Committee:

The Super Committee creates a mini “super” Congress whose
conclusions will be put on the fast track for approval without
any opportunity for our elected officials to revise or amend.

The Super Committee’s conclusions must come up for an “up or
down” vote with no opportunity for Senate filibuster. Majority
rules!

In essence, votes from seven Super Committee members will prevail.
That means seven members of Congress (including Senators) have
been empowered to raise taxes when the Constitution stipulates
that all revenue bills must originate in the House.

IT EFFECTIVELY TIES THE HANDS OF YOUR SENATORS AND REP (unless
they happen to be one of the “Chosen 12”) AND REMOVES THEM
FROM THE REAL WORK OF CUTTING WASTE OUT OF OUR GOVERNMENT!

Most Americans will not be truly represented in the process
while most members of Congress will be shielded from any real
accountability because they can always blame “the Super
Committee.”
