Region residents and Region businesses are watching Washington DC to see if we fall off the so-called fiscal cliff - and everyone sees a tax hike. ABC News' Senior White House Correspondent Jake Tapper is at the White House and says confidence isn't running high among many Americans that a deal will be reached in time. "The latest Pew Poll indicates a lot of public pessimism with 49-percent of the public saying they do not expect a deal to be struck by deadline, 40-percent a little bit more optimistic," Tapper says.
That deadline is less than four weeks away. For Region residents who'd like to communicate their concerns to Congress, we've gathered links to elected officials representing northwest Indiana and the state.
