President Obama needs all of us right now.

Republicans in Congress are set to vote this week to eliminate Medicare to pay for more special tax breaks for big corporations, political donors and Washington special interests. We must stand with President Obama to make sure right-wing Republicans don’t get away with breaking this sacred promise to our seniors.

Please watch our ad about the latest crisis created by Republicans in Congress, share it with your friends, and join this critical fight >>

After you watch the video, I want you to join me in calling on all Americans who care about keeping our promises to future generations to contact their Member of Congress and tell them to keep their hands off our Medicare. The vote is imminent so we must take action now:

Thank you for standing strong.

How does Obama need us to help him veto this? Truth is, how will it ever get to his desk? Does it have a prayer in hell of getting past the Senate? Or is Martin just trying to drum up donations for the DCCC so they can use it to support conservative democrats and undermine democratic primaries?
