Stand with Struggling American Families

Sen. Jim Bunning (R-KY) is blocking crucial unemployment benefits from reaching more than 1.2 million out-of-work Americans. Senate Republicans are quietly standing by, aiding his obstruction. They hypocritically think they can help Bunning with his cruel filibuster while avoiding any blame for hurting struggling families who count on these benefits to put food on the table, pay bills and keep a roof over their heads.

Richard Burr (R-NC), David Vitter (R-LA) and Chuck Grassley (R-IA) are up for reelection. Demand they answer this question: Do you publicly support Jim Bunning’s cruel filibuster?

It’s time for Republicans to stop hiding under their desks. Do they stand on the side of Jim Bunning? Or do they stand on the side of unemployed Americans? You can leave an optional comment below.
