Today, Wednesday, Sept. 15 is National Jobs Emergency Day and a rally will take place at Montpelier City Hall from noon til 1pm.
The rally will call on Congress to:
Recognize the jobs emergency in the nation and pass the Local Jobs For America Act.
Extend the Temporary Assistance to Needy Families emergency fund jobs subsidies program.
Extend unemployment insurance.
Renew the country’s infrastructure by creating a national infrastructure bank.
Create jobs, protect public services, and help get the economy moving again.
And that Wall St. must be made to pay their fair share for the economic collapse they created through a tax on financial speculation which would be aimed at raising $200–$500 billion every year.
