By Doug Cunningham

: “There is no reason on God’s green earth that fifteen million people can’t be back to work this January if we made a decision as a nation that that was our top priority.”

SEIU President Mary Kay Henry. Henry says Americans know in our bones that something is very wrong when many millions of people can’t find jobs while the richest one percent grow richer. Henry was arrested in a civil disobedience act recently at the Brooklyn Bridge protesting the corporate domination of America and lack of any real agenda for the common good.

: “People believe that that level of sacrifice and dedication is required in this moment to get our elected officials and CEO’s to understand that we need to get back to work in the millions. And that we are capable asa nation of making that happen.”
