This month's vigils will focus on jobs. We want our Representatives to pass Rep. George Miller's Local Jobs for America Act (HR 4812, 163 co-sponsors), which would cost $100 billion for 1 million local jobs. Where do we get the money? Easy - bring all our troops safely home from the disastrous occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan that cost $3 trillion so far. So we're also urging our Representatives to pass Rep. Barbara Lee's Afghanistan Withdrawal bill (HR 6045, 20 co-sponsors).
