Ed Schultz confirms S3706 will get Senate attention this week. Today on his radio show, Ed Schultz ended the weekend speculation over whether the Stabenow story was in-fact true and what prompted him (Ed) to make that call to the Michigan Senator last Friday, on behalf of the 99er Nation.
Ed has expressed a great deal of concern over the impact disenfranchised voters, like the 99er NOVOs would have on the midterm elections. Last week, Ed announced on the radio his determination to change the minds of those who had planned to sit out this election, unless the Americans Want to Work Act was brought to the Senate floor.
On today’s show, Schultz gave his rendition of how the process may play out this week. He confirmed that Senator Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) did commit to bring S3706 to the floor for a vigorous debate and a possible voice vote. He also acknowledged the distinct possibility that the Republicans will likely block such a vote. Ed did add that there was a possibility that a few Republican Senators may help override such filibustering techniques, but that is anyone’s guess. No telling what the Republicans might do.
Ed said he was not sure if this was going to be enough to change the minds of the 99er NOVO movement, but it is a step in the right direction.
After hearing this radio dialog, the San Diego Unemployment Examiner contacted Rob C. to confirm his intention was to indeed dissolve the 99er NOVO movement, once the bill gets to the Senate floor. “All we want is a fighting chance to survive,” Rob explained. “Ed has done his part, Stabenow should do her part and then we will keep our promise to take all the energy of the NOVOs and put it toward a Democratic win in November. There may be those in the NOVO movement who disagree with doing so, but that is the beauty of living in America. We all have the right to choose for ourselves and then act accordingly, but the great majority of the NOVOs are on board with this decision.”
At the close of his radio show today, Ed Schultz announced that he will have 99er information tonight on his MSNBC show that you do not want to miss.
Thank you GOD, thank you mr shultz for all youre help,youve been great no matter what happens thanks for going out of youre way i appreciate it very much,every 99er needs to thank you. good luck every one,have a good one
ReplyDeleteIs the Democratic strategy to sit on S3706 because the bill will not pass a Senate vote? If S3706 makes the floor and is defeated I will be voting republicans out. If S3706 does not make the floor than Democrat Max Baucus, finance committee chair, did not move it forward. Why not?
ReplyDeletetrk387 t (youtube advocate for the UE) I have to say this whole NOVO bullshit is a JOKE! So even though the 99er's will be in the same position regardless if S3706 is passed, these IDIOTS are going to hurt themselves FURTHER by voting against the dems? & placing in power a group Republicans that will HURT them more! Sounds like the rodney king riots, they did not destroy beverly hills, or redeo drive, they destroyed their own homes, own businesses, REAL SMART ROB... what were you before this, a mail clerk in a basement some place?
ReplyDeletethanks for your help, i just pray it is voted on soon. people are hurting here. why keep them waiting on a vote
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely not casting a vote come November 2nd if that bill isn't brought to the floor.
ReplyDeleteIf the Republicans filibuster it, then the Democrats did what they could and it isn't their fault. If it isn't even brought to the floor, the democrats failed miserably and if they can't do any good now, what will helping them during the election accomplish?
I think it is a forgone conclusion that the House is gone. Things aren't going to get better. If the Democrats want the senate, they better wise up now and at least TRY to pass Stabenow's bill.
