Klobuchar takes on urgent issues

[becxx]

16 million kids in the USA face hunger.
240,000 Minnesotans are jobless.
400,000 Minnesotans lack health insurance.
Increasing numbers face homelessness.
Minnesota vets face the likelihood of inadequate healthy care after drastic cuts in GAMC.
Suicide rate among our soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan is sky high.

Amy Klobuchar is working really, really hard on getting baggage fees down. Really, really really hard!!!

She has been really, really, really busy making speeches too. She even squeezed in a spread for Elle magazine and some photo ops at various places.

pretty abysmal if you ask me

But wait she did have time for some Senate business it's right here

76 Senators sign on to Israel letter

More than three quarters of the U.S. Senate, including 38 Democrats, have signed on to a letter to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton implicitly rebuking the Obama Administration for its confrontational stance toward Israel.

The letter, backed by the pro-Israel group AIPAC, now has the signatures of 76 Senators and says in part:

"We recognize that our government and the Government of Israel will not always agree on particular issues in the peace process. But such
differences are best resolved amicably and in a manner that befits longstanding strategic allies. We must never forget the depth and breadth
of our alliance and always do our utmost to reinforce a relationship that has benefited both nations for more than six decades."

A similar letter garnered 333 signatures in the House, and its support marks almost unified Republican support for Benjamin Netanyahu's government, along with strong, but more divided, public Democratic discomfort with Obama's policies in the region.
