Hungry for Jobs? Come to the Kitchen Table

Register for the Kitchen Table Summit

Los Angeles, CA – Hundreds of residents from struggling LA communities will join Congress members Maxine Waters, Laura Richardson and Karen Bass to take on the issues facing them at their kitchen tables – depression-level unemployment, bankruptcies, foreclosures and cuts to public services – and to call for urgent job creating legislation.

The debate in Washington is focused on budget cuts and protecting tax breaks for profitable corporations and the rich, but struggling communities in Los Angeles continue to feel the devastating effects of an on-going recession. At the same time, Wall Street corporations are making a bad situation worse by sitting on $2 trillion in cash and cutting jobs to further increase profits. Instead of balancing budgets on the backs of working families, we need a legislative agenda that makes corporations and the rich contribute their fair share to the economic recovery, invests in the communities hit hardest by the recession, and creates good jobs.

    I don’t know if it’s just me or if everyone else encountering issues with your website. It seems like some of the text within your content are running off the screen. Can someone else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them too? This may be a issue with my internet browser because I’ve had this happen previously. Cheers

    Very good website you have here but I was wondering if you knew of any forums that cover the same topics talked about here? I’d really like to be a part of online community where I can get advice from other experienced individuals that share the same interest. If you have any recommendations, please let me know. Kudos!

    Honestly i am in two minds on whether to take stand for or against. you are simply sharing your own point,i appreciate it. For some it will ring true for others it may not resemble their experience at all. I’m simply encouraging dialogue in the hope others will get the support they need.
