Members and representatives of SEIU Healthcare PA, Philadelphia Unemployment Project, Penn Action and the AFL-CIO gathered at Rep. Mike Fitzpatrick's district office to hold a symbolic funeral for the Middle Class. The Congressman supported the Ryan plan, which became the GOP budget. The plan defunds Medicaid 33%, privatizes Medicare and repeals the Affordable Care Act all of which would cost jobs and negatively impact the Middle Class that holds those jobs and relies on the programs for security. 58% of the nursing home patients in the Congressman's district are Medicaid beneficiaries. The 33% cut to Medicaid would cost PA over 80,000 according to Families USA.

This is what u get with SEIU and the AFL-CIO. They will let u go soon because there is no money from unemployed people and they only care about the money. Sorry for your job loss but staying or being with a union is not your best choice.

I hate disappoint the protestors but our federal government is broke. The government brings in $2.5 trillion in income and is $14.5 trillion in debt. That is 6 times their annual income. Contrary to popular belief, government does not create jobs, it can only destroy jobs. If government spending could have a net positive effect on the employment rate, than communism would work. As our government continues to grow, so will unemployment.
