Dear Chairman Ryan,
On behalf of more than 1.9 million Americans for Prosperity activists in all 50 states, I applaud you for introducing a smart and serious budget blueprint for fiscal year 2013. Your budget tackles the fiscal crisis in Washington head on and offers our country a future of lower spending, lower taxes, and lower debt than what the President proposed in February.
For decades the size and scope of the federal government has grown without restraint, leading us into the mess of massive debts that we see today. As you have rightly pointed out, if we stay on our current path government spending will consume an ever larger share of our economy and the public debt will continue to climb rapidly to unconscionable and unsustainable levels. Such government excess will be a huge drag on our economy and the prospects of future generations.

WASHINGTON – Americans for Prosperity (AFP), the nation’s largest advocate for economic freedom, recently announced Rep. Allen West as a featured speaker at the March 27th Hands Off My Health Care rally on Capitol Hill.
AFP President Tim Phillips said, “This is one of the most important cases in a generation and the White House is working contrary to the will of the American people. That’s why President Obama is doing everything possible to generate last-minute support for a law that we feel violates the Constitution.”
A broad coalition of 20+ organizations will bring thousands to rally on Capitol Hill, while concurrent Hands Off My Health Care rallies hosted by AFP take place in Missouri, Ohio, Maine, Colorado, and Montana.

ARLINGTON, VA. — In response to today’s introduction by Chairman Paul Ryan of his FY2013 budget resolution, Americans for Prosperity (AFP), the nation’s leading free market grassroots organization, released the following statement.
AFP President Tim Phillips:
“Once again House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan has laid down a marker that provides a clear and credible path forward for the federal budget. The Ryan Budget simultaneously calls for much-needed pro-growth tax reform and reforms to the biggest drivers of the nation’s runaway government spending. In contrast to the President’s budget this plan is a legitimate legislative effort to budget for the coming fiscal year.
