This is a place on the Senate ballot for you to protest the tax cuts for the rich that have created a country where the top 1% own more than the bottom 90% combined! where the 400 richest Americans own more than the bottom 180 million! where Social Security and Medicare are threatened while candidates like Romney own 4 private residences with elevators for their automobiles.
- Universal Rights to Healthcare, Fair Hours and Benefits
-
Workers and families have right to fair pay, health care, fair hours, time for loved ones and pensions. ADDED BONUS: Mike Strimling's Email from Monday, March 31, 2003, as the Iraq War Started
