1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East has teamed up with AFSCME to launch a new radio commercial on an important jobs bill creating and protecting jobs in both the private and public sectors. The radio ad, beginning tonight, calls on Senator Scott Brown to "keep his promise" to create and protect jobs by bringing Federal Medicaid Assistance Program (FMAP) funding back to Massachusetts through this jobs bill, which is expected to come up for a vote on Monday.
More than 300,000 jobs will be lost--900,000 when you factor in the loss of other measures--if states don't receive these critical funds, as explained in this recent blog post on SEIU.org.
Listen to the radio ad and read the letter we joined dozens of groups in signing.
Call Senator Scott Brown and tell him to vote YES on American Jobs & Closing Tax Loopholes: 866-311-3405.
