218 cosponsors will force a vote in the House; Rep. Loretta Sanchez is still refusing to cosponsor, she might be waiting for 200+ cosponsors before she considers it safe.
From parts of LULAC’s resolution:
“WHEREAS, Wall Street has been bailed out with tens of trillions of dollars of taxpayer money, but Main Street is in a state of ever deepening job loss and crisis; and “
“THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that LULAC, meeting in convention in Cincinnati, Ohio, in July 2011, hereby endorses HR 1489, and calls upon members of Congress to co-sponsor and enact HR 1489, to restore the protections of the Glass-Steagall Act.”

Let’s all attend and ask Loretta why she is refusing to cosponsor.
This is an exceptional group fo technology comapnies in OC; many national leaders in their space
The government needs to stay the hell out of it. A government that believes in global warming clearly hasn’t understood the true and accurate technological arguments against it, or worse lies about it.
lt’s keep politics out of science. The science on Global Warming and its manmade contributing factors to climate change are real. But some people would rather think short term versus long term; if we don’t protect the environment in the long runu, trust me, it’s bad for business and life as we know it on this planet.
I attended the session today; even the hard core conservatives in the group nodded their heads in agreement when Loretta said tech investing is about jobs and not a Republican or Democratic issue.
