Getting People Back To Work And Bringing Our Troops Homes (Congressman-elect John Boccieri)

November 26th, 2008

First and foremost, I hail from Ohio and Ohio has suffered disproportionate to the rest of the country with economic job loss. In fact, in the last eight years we have had 180,000 job losses. That means that every day that George Bush has been in office, 61 pinks slips have been handed out to families, so we’ve got to put our state on track and put those people back to work.

Of course this issue that we’re dealing with with the Big Three automobile dealers is extremely important to me, because 25 percent of our state’s economy is based on how well or how poorly the automotive industry does, as is getting our people back to work, bringing our troops home from Iraq safely and honorably, and making sure that Ohio citizens have access to affordable healthcare.
