Petition Asking President Obama: To Use His Executive Order Power On The American Jobs Act Bill. Pass It We Can't Wait.

Congressman Dan Benishek visited Escanaba last week as part of his 100 Businesses in 100 Days tour. There, he said that unemployment is high because "people don't want to work." Our country is undergoing one of the worst recessions in decades. Many hard-working and qualified people in the 99% are out of work, and Michigan has been hit harder than almost any other state. THAT is why people are unemployed. It's NOT because those who live up north are lazy and don't want to work. If you believe that Michiganders are hard-working, and believe that Rep. Benishek should retract his statement, sign the petition!

Unions have always been a souce of strength to the Democratic Party, but according to the DNC's 2012 Presidential Election Year Survey, supporting unions is not a priority item in this year's election strategy. Shouldn't it be?

Many Americans wish to reevaluate and decrease a bloated and ill-proportioned military budget, but according to the DNC's 2012 Presidential Election Year Survey, a stand on this issue is not a priority in this year's campaign.

Many Americans believe that it is time to end the Bush tax cuts, and achieve a fairer tax structure. However, according to the DNC's 2012 Presidential Election Year Survey, the fight for tax fairness will not be a priority item in this year's election campaign. It should be..

Citizens should know that Republicans blatantly lie about our so-called "free market economy"; this lie leads people to believe other lies about "job creators" and the real reasons for the recession, unemployment, and the difficulties we all face. Voters need to understand how our economy really works and what can realistically be done to improve it for all citizens.

Speedworld has been an Arizona motorsports icon for more than 50 years and is in jeopardy of being shut down by Maricopa County for minor zoning violations, some of which that were made more than 20 years ago. Maricopa County alleges that Speedworld is in violation of grading/drainage requirements and use permit violations that were implemented long before current owner Dan Mathews took over the business. Speedworld is not trying to avoid coming into compliance with the County's requests, we are only asking to be able to keep our doors open while the changes are being made. If forced to close it's doors during the process, Speedworld would be put out of business completely due to the cost of the changes that the County is seeking. We're calling on Speedworld customers and motorsports fans around the country to raise awareness on what this track means to Arizona and those across the country. Don't let Arizona's longest running motorsports park be shut down due issues that can easily be worked through by Maricopa County and Speedworld Raceway Park together.

Since President Obama took office no job bills supported by partisan vote has been signed into law in a recession. I'm calling out all members of congress who voted against job bills in the presence of high unemployment rate.
