31 House Dems want Bush tax cuts extended for everyone

In addition to some defections in the US Senate, 31 House Democrats have sent a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Majority Leader Steny Hoyer declaring their support for extending the Bush tax cuts for everyone.

Here's an excerpt:

We believe in times of economic recovery it makes good sense to maintain things as they are in the short term, to provide families and businesses the certainty required to plan and make sound budget decisions. Providing this certainty will give small businesses, the backbone of our economic recovery, confidence and stability.
Sounds good to me.
