By now I'm sure you've heard the talk about the fast-approaching "fiscal cliff."
And if you listen to Washington insiders, the media elite and the big spenders on Capitol Hill - the only solution is massive tax hikes on the American people.
Even some of my Republican colleagues are "warming up" to the idea of hiking taxes as a "solution" to our economic problems.
But the truth is, we don't have a revenue problem in Washington. We have a spending problem.
And the tax hikes being talked about by the big spenders in Washington are sure to send our economy into a tailspin!
That's why I'm counting on you to sign your No Tax Hikes petition IMMEDIATELY.
Like most conservatives, I understand a tax hike would unquestionably make things worse.
The last message you and I should be sending Washington is that it needs more money. I don't want the government to have more revenue.
I want YOU to have more money in your pockets. Money YOU earned.
When I was first elected in 2010, I made a pledge to the good folks of Kentucky that I would never vote to hike taxes.
And as a man of my word, a pledge is not something I'm going to go back on.
Instead, I'm going to lead the fight to cut spending and stop any new tax hikes the big spenders try to ram through Congress.
I'm sure you agree the solution to our economic problems isn't higher taxes on hard-working Americans.
The solution is for my fellow Republicans to stand up unashamedly in the fight against any attempt to raise our taxes.
Can I count on you to stand with me by signing your No Tax Hikes petition right away?
As I'm sure you remember, last year we had a huge controversy over raising the debt ceiling.
Eventually, a "compromise" that automatic cuts that would take place if a special "Super Committee" failed to cut spending was reached.
Guess what? They failed.
Not only did the committee fail to find cuts - they now want to get rid of the automatic cuts, jack up our taxes and raise the debt ceiling again.
This is insanity!
Unfortunately, many of my Republican colleagues are dropping like flies.
House Speaker John Boehner offered Barack Obama a "compromise" to hike taxes by a staggering $800 BILLION.
And my dad tells me the entire House is in disarray. I know the sessions and meetings I've witnessed in the Senate give me more fear than hope.
That's why it's never been more important constitutional conservatives like you stand up and demand Congress oppose any new tax increases.
So please, sign your No Tax Hikes petition right away.
My goal is to circulate your petition - along with hundreds of thousands of others - to members of Congress to put them on notice that the American people are tired of the big government, big spending status quo in Washington.
And along with your No Tax Hikes petition, I hope I can count on you to make a generous contribution of $500, $250, $100, $50 - or whatever you can afford - to RAND PAC.
Your generous contribution will help me contact millions of Americans to turn up the heat on their Congressman and Senators to OPPOSE any attempt to raise taxes on hard-working Americans.
So please, sign your No Tax Hikes petition and make the most generous contribution you possibly can afford IMMEDIATELY.
Of course, you and I certainly have our work cut out for us. The recent election proved this to be truer than ever.
But I'm confident that together you and I can stop the Big Government, big spending establishment in Washington from passing new tax hikes.
In Liberty,
Senator Rand Paul
P.S. After being defeated in the recent elections, many establishment Republicans are talking about caving in to the Democrats' demands for massive tax hikes.
You and I must stop this madness by standing firm for our conservative principles.
So please sign your No Tax Hikes petition and make a generous contribution of $500, $250, $100, $50 - or whatever you can afford - to RAND PAC.
Your generous contribution will help mobilize millions of Americans to turn up the heat on Congress to oppose any attempt to raise taxes on hard-working Americans.
