"Nearly 3,000 protesters are staging sit-ins in congressional offices at the Capitol on Tuesday, demanding they be heard on the plight of the unemployed.
The protests, organized by activist groups including OurDC and Moveon.org, will target 99 lawmakers’ offices by the end of the day, according to event spokesman Mike Uehlein."
I love how they equate a meeting with a legislative director as either equal to or good enough. We are "monitoring" their activities. For what?
Jeezes H., could ya make yourself any less accessible or is it the accountability factor that scares them?
Your right on all points.
The congress critters are running scared going into the election cycle and that is the best thing that I have seen for America in decades.
Power is returning to the people. Now if we can only keep our heads and our hands on it.
