We, the undersigned, call on the President, the U.S. Senate and the U.S. Congress to establish a modern day version of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) to help alleviate the devastating effects that long term unemployment has had on individuals, families and our economy.
The purpose of the WPA 2000 would be to provide a job to anyone that wants to work, young or old, skilled or unskilled.
With our crumbling infrastructure and the need to help alleviate the problem of long term unemployment that still exists, it's time for our elected representatives to put politics aside and do what's right for the country and its citizens. And that's to create a jobs program.
When you help our people, you help our country. Put us to work.
