A STEP BACK IN TIME - BY YEARS


DON'T LET BOEHNER AND THE REPUBLICANS TURN BACK THE CLOCK



Issues

Boehner’s America: The Economy

Corporate greed runs rampant: CEOs are unchecked, consumers’ rights are weakened, foreclosures jump up.

Boehner’s America: The Environment

More dependence on fossil fuels that create climate change, big breaks for big oil, lower emission standards.

Boehner’s America: Health care

Handouts for big pharma and insurance companies, gouging of Medicaid and Medicare, less coverage for children.

Boehner’s America: Reproductive Rights

Loss of funding for Planned Parenthood, no information about choice from health care providers, major support of anti-choice groups.

The GOP has made it clear that the interests of women and families don't matter to them. If they win on November 2, Speaker Boehner and the Republican majority would start right away at gutting our progress and protections: They would repeal health care reform; Abandon Social Security; Protect big corporations; And chip away at our reproductive rights at every turn.

DOING ONE THING - SAYING ANOTHER

Republicans say they are the party of paychecks, HOWEVER, (R)Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey just put 6000 workers out of work who were federally funded. The State of New Jersey received $3 billion from the federal government to build their half of a New Jersey-to-New York (Hudson River) rail tunnel project to keep up with the flow of traffic. Christie put a stop to the construction, but wants to keep the money and put it into his highway trust fund.

CONCLUSION

Going camping, living in the wilderness, or living a rustic backwoods-life without modern conveniences, healthcare facilities, a job or money should be OUR choice, NOT Boehner's. But HE wants the ultimate choice over OUR lives. Don't let him rule YOU.
