Demand a Town Hall
Congressmen Dave Camp and Fred Upton, Michigan’s members of the supercommittee, are busy deciding what to cut and what to save in order to fix our country’s $1.2 trillion deficit. They’re doing it without having town halls to listen to their constituents. Wall Street is having its say loud and clear, though – in the form of hundreds of thousands of dollars from corporations and CEOs that the two millionaire politicians have accepted since being appointed to this powerful panel.
The rest of us – the 99 percent – shouldn’t have to hire a lobbyist or start our own PAC to be heard. We deserve the opportunity to tell our Congressmen about the damage that’s been done by the Wall Street special interests that have them firmly in their pocket. Demand that Camp and Upton hold town halls at home and listen to the people!
