Wrote a letter to Congress titled 'S.1428 Stop Outsourcing Security Act'

2011-08-26T10:33:04Z

I am writing as your constituent in the 7th Congressional district of Washington. I support S.1428 - Stop Outsourcing Security Act, and am tracking it using OpenCongress.org, the free public resource website for government transparency and accountability. I believe that using Military Contractors have cost our government Billions of dollars. While I was in the Navy, I spent time in the food service and facilities maintenance. It was time well spent in support of our mission and my shipmates. It build a sense of ownership over the equipment and the facilities that we used. Over the last 10 years, I have read many stories about shoddy work by contractors and construction companies that have taken the place, at additional expense, of the internal operations support personnel that used to be fellow members of the Armed Forces. I think it's wrong, and I wish it would stop. Please co-sponsor S.1428 in the Senate, and let's fix this problem. Sincerely, Chad Lupkes

Commented on: H.R.4872: America's Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009

2010-03-19T07:20:16Z

chadlupkes wrote: So, 15 months of debate wasn't enough. Republicans used reconciliation to pass their tax cut package in 2001. Was that a hijacking of America? Or is that a partisan talking point? If 2,000 pages is too complicated, is Grayson's 3.5 page bill better? And I suppose our Supreme Court could declare the bill to be unconstitutional for some reason. They've got the guts now that they are a pure political body.
