Rally at Capitol Today to Save the American Dream
Thursday, July 28, 2011
(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)The AFL-CIO is joining MoveOn
to sponsor a rally to Save the American Dream today
at noon on the east side of the U.S. Capitol steps. “In the past few days,
it’s become increasingly clear that congressional Republicans are willing to
crash our entire economy just to keep tax breaks for millionaires, billionaires,
corporate jet owners and oil companies,” says the AFL-CIO. “They’re
holding our economy hostage, but we still have the power to rise up and demand
Congress raise the debt ceiling without a budget that savages working
families.” You can also click

Medicaid.
