Sign into law the 2012 Hostess ® Twinkies ® Bailout and Economic Stimulus Package

Created by A.S. on November 18, 2012

Congress and President Obama have given billions of dollars to banks, insurance companies, auto manufacturers, etc.

Hostess Brands will sell its popular brands, 33 bakeries, 565 distribution centers, approximately 5,500 delivery routes and 570 bakery outlet stores throughout the United States and save 18,500 jobs for $100 million. It comes with 25% ownership and representation on its Board of Directors.

The United States of America gave CIT Group $3,000,000,000.

This petition is to request the same courtesy of a bailout to Hostess Brands (with ownership) in helping save 18,500 jobs that will collect $99,900,000 next year in unemployment benefits alone (not including medicaid, food stamps, etc) without a bailout!
