If we all come together as one voice Congress will listen. Come advocate with us for HR 589 and job creation.
HR 589 could add 14 weeks of unemployment benefits to Tier I of Federal Unemployment Benefits. This bill would save many 99ers from further despair and provide income to continue job searches and buy necessities. We need to demand that GOP Leaders bring this bill out of committee and onto the house floor for a vote. We want to work, but until jobs are created we need HR 589.
As a nation, how can we leave millions of people to suffer for something they had no control over? This happened because of poor choices made by our government and big corps.
Long term unemployment is a disaster which requires emergency spending. 3 million jobs available nation wide for more than 15 million unemployed IS a disaster and I'd say qualifies as an emergency. More and more people join the ranks of the 99ers every day. By next year there will be approximately 10 million 99ers. Thats a lot of people who will no longer be able to contribute to the economy and pay taxes.
Its time they start working for ALL of us and not just for the rich. They need to get their priorities straight and we need to help them do that by reminding them everyday that we exist.
