Federal Deficit Reduction Initiative
It's Time to Get Serious
Our national debt is approaching $15 trillion dollars and federal deficits are projected at or above one trillion dollars a year for the foreseeable future. Despite the emerging bipartisan consensus among policy makers that we cannot sustain the current path, they are struggling to find common ground on a plan to reduce the federal deficit. Without some change in these dynamics, their deliberations may not reflect the seriousness and urgency of the need to effectively act. American business has an opportunity to help convey the need for immediate action and ultimately shape the outcome by:
1. Getting educated on the seriousness of this issue; and,
2. Writing to Congress and say that the time for action is now.
BIPAC and its national Prosperity Project network recognize the need to address the nation's growing budget deficit, and its impact on competitiveness and prosperity. Without advocating specific solutions, it is helping start a national conversation to compel elected officials to demonstrate leadership and produce effective results on deficit reduction.
We have put together a wealth of resources on this site that you, the employee, can use to educated and involved. By working together, American business can help advance this issue for the good of all.
