At the end of the City Council session yesterday, consideration of the budget was officially tabled until 11:30 am tomorrow (Thursday), largely because of the controversy over the proposed ad tax. See Story.

We know there are many advocates urging the Council to accept the budget as is, with no budget cuts and including the ad tax.  It remains very important that Councilmembers hear from the advertising and business community about the importance of eliminating the ad tax.  Whether you live in or out of the district please contact them TODAY.  Email addresses and Twitter handles are available on their City Council Bio pages.  The DC Chamber of Commerce has also created a handy tool that will allow you to email every Councilmember at once.
