Air traffic controllers and pre-school teachers are being furloughed or laid off. Mental health programs, scientific research, and unemployment benefits are being slashed -- all thanks to the sequester.

Meanwhile, Wall Street speculators just had their best week ever.

Working families should't be forced to shoulder the burden of economic recovery. Wall Street's reckless behavior got us in this mess -- it's time they paid to clean it up and started creating real jobs for American workers.

It's time Wall Street paid to clean up the mess it created and put Americans back to work -- and we can make it happen.

Tell Congress: Tax Wall Street speculation and put Americans back to work.

Is there a better way of tanking the economy than the sequester? It's full ramifications are yet to be felt.
