Speak Out at Congressman and Senators Office's .In late December, the federal unemployment
insurance fund will run out of money. Unless Congress acts, millions of
Americans face the prospect of going hungry and getting thrown out of their
homes soon after the holidays Politicians
predictably will demand cuts to other progressive programs before authorizing
more spending for unemployment insurance. Meanwhile, jobless union members,
veterans, students and millions of others are struggling to make ends meet
while these leaders support the wealthiest 1%.That’s
why, as part of the AFL-CIO’s America Wants to Work campaign, we will join with
unions and allies across the country on Dec. 8 to give voice to the jobless and
hold members of Congress accountable as the 99% call on our representatives to
reauthorize the unemployment insurance benefit program. WE NEED YOU The 99% and YOUR Unemployment StoryPlease RSVP ASAP

TELL REPRESENTATIVE LOU BARLETTA: “PASS THE JOBS BILL NOW” RALLY
Join AFSCME
for a rally to tell Representative Lou Barletta to PASS THE JOBS BILL NOW Wednesday, September 28 –
4:30 PM OUTSIDE HIS OFFICE LOCATED AT:One South Church Street (Corner of Church St.and Broad St.)Suite 100Hazleton, PA 18201 It’s time to get to
work, and get America back to work.
President Obama’s call for the American Jobs Act is a strong first step
that embraces ideas from across the aisle to help our country recover from the
worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, and I urge you to act on it
immediately. By investing in aid
to states, much-needed infrastructure projects, and workers like me, the
American Jobs Act must put our country and the middle class first. I call on you to put aside political
differences and begin the real work of the nation. The American Jobs Act will
have an immediate impact on job creation and will help grow the economy from
day one. Please support a
comprehensive and bold American Jobs Act and work with the President to help
ease the suffering that so many Americans are feeling every day.
