Share Your Story - Unemployed Public Service Workers

The Local Jobs for America Act provides $100 billion over two years so that local governments and community organizations can create or save over one million jobs - jobs for librarians, child care workers, teachers, and others serving our communities.Women make up more than 60 percent of local government workers, and their contributions to household incomes are now more important than ever. This critical legislation will create and save hundreds of thousands of women's jobs. Have you recently been laid off? Did you work for your local government as a teacher, firefighter, librarian, police officer, or in another public service job? Or were you employed by a non-profit organization that provided community services? If your answer to these questions is yes, please share your story with us.
