Dear Daniel:

As you know, on March 1st, a series of thoughtless, unfocused, "dumb" budget cuts, known as sequestration, went into effect.  These cuts will have devastating impacts on a wide range of government services, including higher education.  As a result of these cuts, student loan origination fees are forecasted to rise by 7.9%, Pell Grants will be cut, and the looming student debt crisis will deepen.  These cuts do not have to happen!

Representative John Conyers understands that and released "The Cancel the Sequester Act of 2013 (HR 900)." It is a simple one sentence bill that, if passed, would completely eliminate the sequester.

Therefore, please sign this new petition in favor of H.R. 900, encouraging Congress to simply repeal sequestration and get back to work on solving the real problems facing Americans from all walks of life.

We need every single office in the House to hear from their constituents, tell them you are sick and tired of these self-imposed budget crises, tell them they need to get out of the way and let America work and tell them to vote yes on HR 900 The Cancel the Sequester Act of 2013!  Then, please share the link to this petition - http://signon.org/sign/congress-vote-for-the?mailing_id=9811&source=s.em.cr&r_by=1415825 - with friends, family, neighbors and co-workers by email, Facebook & Twitter today!

Thank you, as always, for your continued support.

Sincerely,

The Student Debt Crisis Team
