Jobs Bill Force States to Surrender Sovereignty

Jobs Bill Force States to Surrender Sovereignty

Jobs Bill is not about creating jobs, but surrendering States Sovereignty.  Under Sec.376, States receiving any Federal funding whether Medicaid, Medicare, Tuition, FEMA, etc. will now surrender its Sovereignty under this new Jobs Bill.  Surrendering Sovereign Immunity allows states to be sued by anyone recognized by the Federal Government.  Interesting that Hilda Solis has been advocating the rights of illegals and now this Jobs plan forces states to yield its sovereignty to be sued.  It is also likely Labor Unions could invoke this requirement to supersede Right to Work and force unionization of state agencies and businesses.  Is this a Jobs Bill or a Bill to expand Federal power via DOJ, DOL, and others members of the Federal Family?

  • 4086059706?profile=originalHopefully conservative small government common sense responsible change in 2012
  • Typical Socialist agenda of the obuma admin.  Speak out all  ( with civillity) and let's defeat them in 2012.
  • This so called Infrastructure Bank first introduced by my favorite Enemy#1 George Soros. It is just another way for the Unions and this Administration to get their Grubby Mitts on some more of the Tax payers money. Check it out read the BILL! I dare you! Do you actually think that Non- union Construction will get the jobs yeah right! Do you actually think that any private sector jobs will be created? Wrong!
  • James a nice enema to the loop holes in the tax code and a flatter tax would work for all and let's not forget the regulatory burden on our job creators and lift that damn moratorium so that we can finally use what we have an abundance of here not OPEC not Brazil for uncle George Soros. Open this up and watch the flood gates open for jobs in this Country begin. Repatriate the money from overseas one time make it easier for manufacturing and others to ignite. This would bring plenty of well needed funds to the coffers of our Government as well as an economic time bomb of spending and creation this Country sadly needs right now. By all means punish those that are hiring Illegals as well . here is a thought Do the job of Securing our nation Mr. president the "Oath" you swore to do!
  • This bill also proposes another new agency and at least one new czar.  Page 40 AMERICAN INFR ASTRUCTURE FINANCING AUTHORITY will be given over $1 Trilion of federal funding for infrastructure, such as bridges, roads, etc.  We already have people who shoudl be in charge of these things. 
  • Well here is where I can see the Tea party doing some good. I didn't see it before, attacking SS and medical insurance for seniors. There are serious problems in our country ,being a fanatic about things is how we got this way by my thinking. Now about principals, yes. But lets see the other sides point of view as well.  Taxing the rich doesn't seem to be all that bad, especially as if you make 10 mil a year. Paying an extra 10,000 in income tax is all that much of a burden. Cutting SS for seniors who trusted the word of the gov in this plan, which was mandatary not volountary, is lying and cheating. Ponzi scheme, come on now. If the money put in was left only for SS, it would be pleanty enough, so who is sucking on the Gov teats? Who is that wise a-ss from Wyoming? The one with the life time full pension. Oh yes, bet if you cut his pension, his story would change! Live and let live a bit here Tea partyers. I'm ready to join if I see moderation and common sense from you.Please...
