By a vote of 247-161 Tuesday afternoon, the House passed a critical $26 billion jobs bill that will help state and local governments and school districts with their budget shortfalls. This bill will not add one penny to the deficit.
You made this victory possible. You generated more than 60,000 phone calls, letters and emails to Congress demanding that they do the right thing — and your voice was heard.
We'll Remember in November
We overcame Republican filibusters on the critical aid to state and local governments that will save thousands of public and private sector jobs.
We overcame Republican obstructionism and ultimately passed unemployment benefit extensions for our sisters and brothers that are out of work.
And earlier this year, we overcame every Republican trick in the book as they tried to block President Obama's historic health care reform legislation.
