Dear Senator, What is the North American Union that Lou Dobbs of CNN is talking about? I also read about Canada sign a treaty with the United States to share troops in civil emergencies. This was signed on Feburary 14, 2008. Do you know anything about this, and can our government do this with out Congress giving them the OK?
Dear Senator Lautenberg, I am asking for your vote and assistance to support Bill S 2544 Emergency Unemployment Compensation Extension Act of 2008.The local and national economy is suffering at this time and this action is greatly needed to bridge workers to their next employment. Thank You for your service to the citizens of New Jersey and may you have a blessed weekend. Bill Toner Blackwood, New Jersey.
IMPEACH GEORGE BUSH! A TRAITOR! A LIAR! A THEIF! PUT HIM IN THE STREET! EVERYONE SPEAK OUT! DON'T JUST WAIT FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN. GET UP AND MAKE IT HAPPEN!
You must push to help us here in NJ on s2544 it needs to become law. I will lose my house soon if not helped. My wife is the only reason I have not lost it already. This month we fall 30days behind all everything we need help.
Please push to get the UI extension passed. My benefits ran out in December, I am turning 50 and have not found employment. My next step is welfare and I dont want that, I want to work! At this point anything would help. Thank you.
dear senator why should we elect you when you let HR 5351
pass, add .50 to the price of gasoline,and give HUGO CHAVEZ tax exemption. AS he tells everyone THE USA IS TERRIBLE and our GOVERMENT SUCK?
Dear Senator, Please help the unemployed in Nj by aiding in the passage of H.R. 5749 Emergency Extended Unemployment Compensation Act of 2008 which passed the House on 5/15/2008.It will go to the Senate this week. Please vote Yes! Unemployed in Clark, NJ
I have been out of work since November 2007. My unemployment benefits have run out. My money has run out. I unable to obtain employment and need more time to continue my search for employment. I am at risk of losing my car. Gas prices continue to rise daily. I am highly skilled in my field. My State Rhode Island is one of the hardest hit with unemployment. I am 53 old and have worked hard all my life. I've paid taxes all my life, and this is how my country is treating me. Unbelievable. The Senate, House and President continue to play games as peoples life's are put in jeopardy. Totally disgusting. So all the extra time that I am not spending on looking for employment, I will dedicate to making sure any politician that votes nay on not extending unemployment insurance will be out of a job their next term by informing the public of their decision in every forum available. I will encourage others to do so as well. It is time in this country for the people to take control of their government again and take it out of the hands of the uninformed, out of touch, uncompassionate, ignorant, greedy, self absorbed fools that are the true terrorists ruining this country. Pass a fxxkxxg bill extending unemployment benefits or you will be out of a fxxkxxg job!!!!!!!!! Try to remember you work for all the PEOPLE of this country! And all those PEOPLE will remember how you vote on this issue.
