Schakowsky's Awesome Jobs Bill

Jan Schakowsky, a high-profile Progressive Caucus congresswoman from Illinois, has released a jobs bill. In her statement, she announced to America that the "worst deficit this country faces isn’t the budget deficit. It’s the jobs deficit. We need to get our people and our economy moving again.”

And her bill does precisely that in a very noble and brave step forward.

Building infrastructure, & charging "Millionaires & Billionaires" to do so.

FTW!
