Working Families Need President Obama -<br />
And President Obama Needs Us.<br />
In 2008, we made history, electing a<br />
champion for working families.<br />
Since then, President Obama signed<br />
the Recovery Act and other crucial<br />
initiatives and we’ve seen more<br />
than 4 million jobs created. He also<br />
prevented hundreds of thousands<br />
of layoffs in the health care industry,<br />
education and public sectors.<br />
President Obama is Standing Up<br />
for the 99%.<br />
Extremists in Washington want<br />
to give more tax breaks to<br />
millionaires and protect tax breaks<br />
for corporations that ship American<br />
jobs overseas, but you can stop them.<br />

fought back against attempts to roll back workers’ collective<br />
bargaining rights.<br />
• Expanding Access to Affordable Health Care and Education:<br />

loans more affordable, and his health care law will ensure that<br />
