I tried to have input into the Coronavirus Stimulus legislation prior
to its passing. I asked Congressman Roger Williams (Republican, Texas,
25th District) if those of us on Social Security would get the $1,200.00
check like everyone else. He said, “Don’t worry you will get your check
just like everyone else.”
Another lie from this Trump supporter.
In fact, millions of people, including those of us on Social Security,
will have to jump through multiple hoops in hopes of getti
ng these “stimulus checks.”
Nothing but lie after lie.
How come Republican Congressman Roger Williams just couldn’t tell me the truth in the first place when I called to talk to him?
What we need is a very simple and straight forward piece of legislation
providing every adult in this country $2,000.00 a month along with
providing $100.00 a month for every child in the family.
We can win this through an organized mass struggle.
Talk about this with family, friends, fellow workers; anyone who will listen.
Write letters.
Circulate petitions.
Demonstrate.
Don’t vote for anyone unless they commit to vote for this.
Members of Congress had a choice:
Provide us with a living income or try to overthrow the democratically
elected governments of Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua... members of
Congress like Roger Williams voted to spend hundreds of billions of
dollars to send thousands of troops and the U.S. fleet to do this dirty
work instead of providing us with a living income to get us through
these troubled times as the capitalist economy collapses.
I bet
Congressman Roger Williams won’t have to jump through a bunch of hoops
to get a stimulus check to bail out his automobile dealership.
