Tuesday, July 19--Today, the US House is debating and voting on the Cut Cap Balance Act, H.R.2560. We need to pass this bill, so we can stop the McConnell-Reid "Cut Run & Hide" automatic debt hike plan and avert a debt collapse. CALL NOW!

FreedomWorks' Dean Clancy explains why President Obama's Aug. 2 "deadline" simply isn't the end of the world. 

President Obama's various dire predictions won't happen on Aug. 2nd. And I can prove it. (The following was published this morning at redstate.com.)  Washington is currently borrowing about 43 cents out of every dollar it spends, and is close to maxing out its credit limit. Current law says Uncle Sam cannot borrow more than $14.3 trillion.

Next Tuesday, the House will vote on the "Cut Cap Balance" Act (H.R.2560) vs. the McConnell-Reid-Pelosi "Cut Run & Hide" bill. FreedomWorks' Max Pappas & Dean Clancy explain what you can do NOW: View the video

Backed by a wave of overwhelming grassroots pressure, Speaker John Boehner has scheduled a surprise House vote on the Cut Cap Balance Act (H.R.2560) this coming Tuesday, July 19th. TAKE ACTION: Tell your Congressman to vote YES on the Cut Cap Balance Act!

Dear FreedomWorks member, As one of our million-plus FreedomWorks members nationwide, I urge you to contact your Senators and Representative and ask them to co-sponsor the Cut, Cap, and Balance Act of 2011.

These next 2 weeks may be our last chance in a generation to get Washington spending under control. The Great Debt Ceiling Debate of 2011 is nearing its exciting conclusion.

You can begin to comprehend the desperation level of a particular party or ideological persuasion when the arguments that are posited leave the realm of logic and plunge into the abyss of absurdity. 

It appears President Obama's strategy in the debt ceiling talks has been to do 4 things: Increase Uncle Sam's credit limit by enough to get past reelection. Pose as a fiscal centrist.  Neuter the GOP on taxes.  Thwart real entitlement reforms.  Until two days ago, his strategy was working.
