Students!

Today young people across the country are making their voices heard by calling on Congress to move quickly to pass a budget that is good for students and working families. We need a new direction for America and the federal budget proposed by President Obama makes some of the firmest commitments leading us there!

Please forward this message now and make a phone call today!

HOW TO CALL: Dial (888) 299-1447 to be connected to your Members of Congress.

SENATOR SCRIPT: Hello Senator ______. My name is ______. I am a student at (name your University) and a voter in your state. I am calling you today in conjunction with the United States Student Association’s National Call-In Day to urge you to vote for Budget Reconciliation in the final version of the Federal Budget. I support the budget with reconciliation because the proposed investments to Pell grants and other higher education programs are desperately needed by students & working families. Thank you for your time and I look forward to your support.
