Stop Obama's Executive Action Tax Hike
| Target Name | Target Organization |
| Rep. John Boehner | (Speaker of the House) |
| Senator Mitch McConnell | (Senate Majority Leader) |
The Obama administration has acknowledged they are pursuing options to bypass Congress in order to raise more than $100 billion in taxes through IRS executive action.
Congress needs to act quickly to stop Obama’s aggressive tax hike agenda.
Voice your concern today! Sign our petition asking the Republican-controlled Congress to stop Obama’s plan to raise taxes through executive action.
The idea to raise taxes by avoiding those who were elected represent us in Washington came to the Obama Administration from the extremely liberal-minded Senator Bernie Sanders (VT), who in a letter to administration officials outlined a long list of executive actions the administration can take without congressional approval.
The letter outlined several corporate tax breaks the administration could void through executive action and others that could be closed through regulatory powers delegated to the Treasury Department.
Obama is showing, yet again, complete disregard for our precious Constitution. Article 1, Section 8 extremely clear on this matter — only Congress has the power to tax.
Americans are tired of a President who is forcing them to accept his political agenda without accountability or debate. Tax decisions need to go through both chambers of Congress.
It’s time for Boehner and McConnell to act strong against a President who uses executive actions as a royal decree.

The Petition
Congress Holds the Power to Tax. Not Obama!
Dear Members of Congress,
I am writing you to ask that you act swiftly to stop the Obama administration’s aggressive tax hike agenda.
Recently, the Obama administration has acknowledged they are colluding with ultra-liberal Senator Bernie Sanders to pursue options to raise more than $100 billion in tax revenue through IRS executive action. The outlined plan is to void several corporate tax breaks with executive orders and actions taken with regulatory powers delegated to the Treasury Department while avoiding the Republican-controlled Congress.
Article 1, Section 8 of the US Constitution is extremely clear on this matter — only Congress has the power to tax. Please stand up to the lawless behavior of President Obama. Act to stop his attempt to raise taxes through executive action.
