Ron Wyden
“The message Congress heard tonight was ‘stay the course,’ but Oregonians are saying they want to change the fiscal course that’s cost our state more than 50,000 jobs and created economic chaos. “Oregonians share my view that the only real solutions are bipartisan
ones. Therefore, I believe the president and his administration should
work with Democrats to protect overtime pay instead of gutting it. The
president and his administration should work with Democrats to provide
health care for all Americans, not just for those who have extra cash
to stash away. The president and his administration should work with Democrats
to meet the educational promise of ‘No Child Left Behind’
instead of decimating our schools by walking away from his promise to
fund that law.” ### |
