API Sponsors Job Rallies – Where are our Politicians?
September 3, 2010
Have you heard about the series of rallies being sponsored by API this month? The goal is to provide forums where interested citizens can voice their concerns about the economy, jobs, and ill-conceived energy proposals.
The first three rallies occurred yesterday in Texas and the turnout was truly incredible – more than 5,500 people attended.
While no rallies are currently planned for California, I wanted to share the following video recap highlighting the day’s events. With 15 million workers in unemployment lines, family budgets under pressure, and higher taxes looming on the horizon, I don’t need to tell you that these folks have enough to worry about, without adding even fewer jobs and higher energy prices to the list.
If you’re interested, more information about the rallies can be found at rallyforjobs.org, and, as always, let me know if you have any questions.
