"Families all across the country are tightening their belts to deal with the tough economic times we are facing. While everyone else is cutting back, Washington, D.C. is the only place going on a wild spending spree. The President's budget proposes a record level of spending that will double the national debt, and raise taxes on every American family. President Obama's "cap and trade" energy tax will cost every American household an average of $3,128 per year. I'd like to hear from you how this out of control spending and borrowing, combined with these proposed tax increases will directly affect your family. By sharing your stories with me I can better represent the views of constituents of the 1st District of Louisiana."
