Lucas,
Speaker Boehner is trying to sue President Obama for using executive power
to try to move the country forward. Meanwhile, the House GOP continues
its agenda of inaction, and the Tea Party continues to empower Speaker
Boehner to lead one of the least productive sessions of Congress in modern history.
As Speaker Boehner and House Republicans pursue yet another politically
motivated stunt to waste taxpayer dollars by suing President Obama, the
American people are waiting for Congress to…
- Raise the minimum wage, which would deliver critical relief to working families that have fallen under the poverty line due to the inflated cost of living.
- Finance the Highway Trust Fund that is about to expire during the busiest travel time of the year for most Americans, and provides thousands of good construction jobs.
- Pass comprehensive immigration reform that would strengthen our national borders and boost our economy.
- Renew emergency unemployment compensation for almost 300,000 New Yorkers that lost a job through no fault of their own.
- Pass legislation that would ensure women are paid the same as men for performing the same amount of work.
The American people are demanding Congress get to work. Instead, Speaker
Boehner and the GOP are intent on more partisanship and politics to try
to better their chances in this year's election. Time is running out
and Congress must get to work before Republicans adjourn for the summer recess!
ADD YOUR NAME HERE IF YOU DEMAND ACTION FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE BEFORE
CONGRESS LEAVES FOR AUGUST VACATION >>>>
The to-do list is stacking up and the GOP is out of excuses. The American
people deserve more than cat-and-mouse games from the men and women they
elected. We don't have much time and we must act now.
I need your help making that point completely clear before Congress adjourns
for the summer. Don’t forget to sign!
Thank you,
Paul
