Members of Congress will begin debating President Obama's budget this week, with a vote likely set for next week.

What you do now will decide what kind of debate they have -- one that's dominated by special interests and partisan voices intent on keeping the status quo, or one that reflects the priorities of citizens like you.

According to our records, you live in zip code 75058, Texas's 4th congressional district.

Can you pick up the phone and let Rep. Ralph M. Hall, Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, and Sen. John Cornyn know where you stand on President Obama's budget?

Example Script for Your Calls
Hello, my name is __________ and I'm calling you from __________ (city or town).

I'm calling today because we are in the grips of the worst economic crisis in generations — and President Obama needs the support of every member of Congress to create jobs, fix our economy and rebuild and renew America.

The President has proposed a budget that is honest, responsible and invests in the priorities we need to get our economy moving again and create jobs now and in the future, including:

Renewable energy to reduce our dependence on foreign sources of oil
Making Health Care more affordable for every American by cutting costs
Improving education so our children are prepared for the jobs of the 21st Century
Can I count on Rep./Sen. _________ to support the President's plan?


Click here when you're done calling.

Last week, thousands canvassed their communities to talk with neighbors about the need for a new direction. Now, it's time to take that message to Washington.

We can't afford to ignore the long-term threats to our prosperity. Now is the time to build the foundation for a recovery that lasts.

Your representatives need to know you support:

Renewable energy to reduce our dependence on foreign sources of oil
Making health care more affordable for every American by cutting costs
Improving education so our children are prepared for the jobs of the 21st Century
After your call, please record your feedback here:
