Petition
Restore the Top Tax Rates

We, the undersigned, call on Congress and President Obama to allow the Bush-era tax cuts for those with taxable incomes over $200,000 (individual) and $250,000 (couple) to expire on Dec. 31, 2010. The increased revenue, an estimated $700 billion over 10 years, should go toward making long overdue investments in education, health, job creation, renewable energy, transportation and other infrastructure.

If you would prefer not to fill out a web form, you can sign on by contacting info@wealthforcommongood.org.

Please note: If you're a business person or if you are in the high-income category, your voice is critically important at this time. Please indicate where appropriate on the form.

It's powerful when those who would pay a tax advocate on its behalf. Please indicate if your taxable income is over $200,000 (individual) or $250,000 (household)
