Senator, What is this North American Union that Lou Dobbs has been talking about? I also read that Canada, on the 14 of February, 2008, sigh a deal with the USA to share troop. Would it require Congress to approve the deal?
Please help push the unemployment extension, there are alot Americans really hurting and losing everything, there are no jobs.... please help....thank you
Dear Senator Menendez, I am writing to ask for your support, vote and assistnace in passing Bill S2544 Emergency Unemployment Compensation Extension Act of 2008.
The Bill was introduced on January 22, 2008 by Senator Kennedy. I would like to hear your feedback on the chances of the Bill going forward. President Bush announced on a interview that the unemployment extension would not be part of the current economic stimulus package passed a couple of weeks ago. I do not understand the logic here. If the economy needs a stimulus package to kick start confidance would not the unemployed workers in this economy need assistance when their UE benifits expired?
Best Regards, Bill Toner Blackwood, NJ
Dear Senator Menendez, It is imperitive that this bill get pushed through immediately. People are losing there homes that they have worked all their lives for. The economy is draining everyone of any security. Food prices, gas prices are through the roof. I know people who are walking away from their homes and moving to NC. It is insane. Get this bill passed NOW. I have organized food drives for the Monmouth/ Ocean County Food Bank and they have seen a 70% increase in people using the Food Bank. This is more serious than many people understand. Please get this bill passed. It will buy people some time. We need you to act on this NOW.
Thank you,
V. Rotonda

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 on everything we need help.
s2544 and any other bill that will extend unemployment benefits.
First of all I would like to thank you for the job you are doing for our state in Washington DC.
I am a mother of three (5 yr 20 monthe and 3 monthes) I was laid off from my job during the 7th month of my pregnancy and having been collecting and paying COBRA since. I can not find a job making nearly what I was making and the cost for daycare does not allow me to just take anything. My unemployment is running out. My husband has a job but as you know here in NJ one salary does not cut it. We have been responible with most bills ALWAYS PAYING OUR MORTGAGE ON TIME. It seems that if we hadn't the goverment would be helping us out. The goverment has helped out people who over stepped there buying power the Governement has help out large wall street companies (Bear Sterns) but yet they will not help out middle America who is tying so hard to keep there bills paid. Please help the unemployed we are trying to get jobs but they are just not there. Thank you
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 and will go to the Senate this week. The unemployed in Nj are counting on you! Unemployed in Clark, NJ
