Hey! Supercommittee! Here's the Smart Plan to Save $7 Trillion, Create Jobs, Save Social Security
America is not broke. But America does have broken priorities.
Americans are waking up to this reality. That’s why they are
occupying Wall Street, that’s why they are protesting in Madison,
Columbus, Lansing and other state capitals, that’s why thousands marched
Saturday in Washington and other cities on behalf of “Jobs and
Justice.”
“We are in the midst of a major economic crisis. Millions of
Americans are jobless, our schools and infrastructure are
under-resourced, our kids are being denied real educational
opportunities and their futures are at risk. It’s no wonder that people
are frustrated,” says American Federation of Teachers president Randi Weingarten,
a featured speaker at the Washington rally that honored the social and
economic justice legacy of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. while
highlighting the ongoing nature of the civil rights icon’s struggle.
“The march and rally are about hitting the streets and taking concrete
action to change our nation to once again become the place where
everyone has a shot at the American dream.”
