NATIONAL BILLS

4-7-08 DON'T OUTSOURCE AMERICA'S SECURITY - The Federal Government recently selected the French Airbus/Northrop Grumman consortium instead of America's Boeing Corporation to replace the United States Air force's aging fleet of aerial refueling aircraft.  This $40 Billion contract to Airbus is sending our tax dollars and good JOBS OVERSEAS.

YOU MUST ACT NOW TO TURN IT AROUND AND KEEP THESE JOBS AND OUR DEFENSE CONTRACTS IN THE USA.

Please contact your US Representative and US Senators and ask them to:

                             1.      A full investigation of the circumstances surrounding the award    of the tanker contract to a foreign contractor,  

2.      Hearings on the countries exempt from the “Buy America Act”, the use of waivers to foreign contractors for defense and the  impact on national security,

                                     3.      The defunding of award of the U.S. Air Force’s contract to Airbus/Northrop Grumman.

President Bush's Social Security Privatization Plan

If you go to the URL below, you can check out what is at stake and send your own message directly to your member of Congress

and senators. Sign the petition and make your voice heard with this action alert from Working Families e-Activist Network at
