There are already a number of co-signers on this letter, but according to our sources in Congress, Leonard Boswell has not signed it as of this morning.
Call Rep. Boswell and ask him to co-sign the Congressional Progressive Caucus letter to the Super Committee. Click here for a sample script and the number to call.

In the face of an implacable and unified opponent, Democrats must remain equally resolute. A large number of co-signers on this letter will be one way Democrats can signal that resolve.
Take a minute to call Rep. Boswell and ask him to co-sign the letter. Click here for the number to call and a short script.
