If you are one of the millions of Americans who have either lost your job already or live in fear of being the next one cut, you need to take this election in November seriously. The only way out of this economy is to change the numbers in Washington. When you hear the word "Washington" you might think of this distant place that only certain people have access to and only few people can actually change. THINK AGAIN! I am going to blog about several of our candidates from now until November. The Forum is providing several opportunities to get to know each of these candidates and ways to volunteer for their campaigns so that you can say you were a part of their victory in November. I hope you will set aside an hour or so between now and November to participate in these events. No candidate was ever elected on their own - it is a team effort and we want you to be a part of that team.
Andy Barr is running for the U.S. Congress in the 6th District of Kentucky. If you've lived in central Kentucky for a while, you've probably heard of Ben Chandler, our current 6th District U.S. Congressman. Chandler has voted the way liberal Nancy Pelosi directs him to 94% of the time!! Our representatives in DC are there to "represent" us, so why would Chandler vote with Nancy Pelosi from California? Chandler is even in favor of Cap and Trade, otherwise known as Cap and Tax. If the democrats weren't in so much trouble right now in the mid-term elections, Chandler and Pelosi would be doing their best to pass this new tax law on our businesses and killing the economy in Kentucky.
When taxes are raised on the top 2% of incomes, it affects 50% of our business and 25% of our jobs. In an economy where just about every job is at risk, why would you want to tax the actual business owners who have the ability to create the jobs we need? Ask Chandler and his buddies Obama and Pelosi. The democrats can try and run for cover away from Obama now, but the truth is still out there - they all share the same agenda of increased taxes and government control of our lives and businesses.
Andy Barr will go to Washington and stand up for our businesses, our jobs and our right to our earn what we work hard for and not have it taken by the federal government for entitlement programs.
Visit Andy's website at www.andybarrforcongress.com to learn more about him and how he will represent you in Washington. He needs our votes in November and our support now as he exposes the truth about Ben Chandler. Join the Forum at an event for Andy Barr on Thursday, September 16th, at Atomic Cafe in downtown Lexington from 5:30 to 7:30pm. It will be a great opportunity to speak with Andy, hear about his ideas for the future of our country and learn how to help his campaign so we will have a voice in Washington!
