Protect Consumers -- Confirm Richard Cordray!

Richard Cordray has been nominated by President Obama to head the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). Cordray was handpicked by Professor Elizabeth Warren as one of her top deputies in setting up the CFPB. As Ohio's attorney general, Cordray earned a reputation of being tough the financial industry. Wall Street and right-wing Republicans don't want the CFPB and have made their intentions clear to sabotage the important agency in any way they can and prevent it from protecting consumers -- Don't Let Them!

Jobs

Pass the American Jobs Act Now!

President Obama's American Jobs Act is a vital piece of legislation to put Americans back to work and get our economy moving. Republicans and Democrats alike have no business putting the politics of next year's election ahead of the dire needs of jobless Americans and their families, or for that matter, the need of ALL Americans to get our economy growing again. Tell Congress: Pass the Bill!

Tell Members of Congress: Democracy Should Not Be Pay-Per-View!

Congressmen like Paul Ryan (R-WI) Ben Quayle (R-AZ), Chip Cravaack (R-MN) and some other Republican members of Congress, instead of hosting their own constituent town hall meetings, are having events hosted for them by friendly organizations with a fee for attendance. These members of Congress are so desperate to shelter themselves from criticism that they are denying their constituents' basic democratic access to their elected officials. Tell them to respect Democracy and the First Amendment; tell them not to charge their constituents for access!
