A People’s Bailout

Jobs with Justice coalitions and ally organizations around the country will take part in an emergency campaign over the next 2 ½ months to get Congress and the new administration to enact a Peoples Bail-Out.

Immediately we call for:

Pass a large economic stimulus/recovery package, on the scale of the emergency we face;

Pass the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA);

Stop evictions due to foreclosures;

Emergency action so people losing jobs don’t lose health care.

Lay the groundwork for a long-term recovery program including:

Green jobs and clean energy;

Restore worker justice, including EFCA and other reforms;

Health care for all;

Retirement security;

Re-regulate the finance system and make the speculators pay to clean-up their mess

Fair Trade and Migration policies
