Do the Math

Today, the President signed a 26 billion dollar state aid bill. Thanks to Speaker Pelosi, the House continued to work during August break. This bill is paid for with cuts from other programs and will not increase the debt. 16 Billion will go directly to states for Medicaid payments that were reduced from previous legislation and 10 Billion to save jobs. Yes, to save jobs. At an average of 50,000 dollars in salary and benefits for example, 200,000 teachers, policemen, fireman and other state workers will continue to serve the public and keep their jobs. Why are Republicans against this? Where are you Americans for reason and truth?
