The Senate is going to vote on the American Jobs Act, and we need your help.

The President has proposed a plan that will put more people to work and put more money in the pockets of middle class families and small businesses. The American Jobs Act will help middle class families get ahead, keep teachers in the classroom and police and firefighters on the beat, and it will put construction workers on the job rebuilding America’s crumbling schools, bridges, and roads.

The Senate vote is critical, and the GOP wants to block it.  They don’t have a better plan to create jobs but the Republicans want to score a political victory that they think will improve their chances in the next election. This strategy hurts American families and is simply shameful.

The American people could not be clearer about what they want Congress to focus on: creating jobs now.  It’s time that the GOP listened to the American people.  Call Mitch McConnell at (202) 224-2541 and tell him to pass the bill.

If you can spend just 5 minutes on the phone, it will make a huge difference. The time to take action is now.
