                   VOTE AGAINST THE REPUBLICAN BUDGET

know: Does the Ryan budget put Americans back to work or back on 
unemployment? The moms and dads I represent want to know: Does the Ryan 
budget invest in our children or does it ignore our outdated public 
schools? The small business owners I represent want to know: Does the 
Republican budget fix our rigged Tax Code or does it protect special 
interest loopholes? The retirees I represent want to know: Does this 
budget protect Medicare or does it abandon seniors in the face of 
skyrocketing health care costs?
  The answer is: no. No, the Ryan budget will not put people back to 
work. No, it doesn't invest in our schools. No, it does not end special 
interest giveaways. No, it does not protect Medicare.
  The Ryan Republican budget does not stand by our communities, and it 
doesn't invest in our future. That's why I urge my colleagues to vote 
``no'' on the Republican budget.
