PrairieHOMEliving: MOVEON Pickets Erik Paulsen's Office, AGAIN:
"In the shadow of local banks, Target and a local veggie stand, Moveon volunteers, for the second time in several weeks, took the time to picket Erik Paulsen's office.
Where was the local media? Eden Prairie News, Eden Prairie Sun? We didn't see them.
Why is Paulsen a target?
He is a member of ALEC and the Chamber of Commerce, two organizations that falsely claim to be non-partisan, financially supporting almost exclusively Republicans. Rep. Paulsen has avoided contact with progressive members of his district in the past, refusing to meet and holding “public” meetings only in the most remote areas of the district where the fewest live according to US Uncut at this URL:

Paulsen's financial backers, a who's who of corporations, is surely a reflection on Paulsen's abysmal voting record. Vote Smart reflects his illogical, pro-life/anti-life, but pro-business positions.
Keep the baby, but make sure his or her food isn't safe, definitely don't consider education funding so he or she can go to a public school, make it harder to get a college education and by all means make his or her working standards and pay like those of a 3rd world country..
The list doesn't end here, but you get the idea..

USuncutMN says: Tax the corporations! Tax the rich! Stop the cuts, fight for social justice for all. Standing in solidarity with http://www.usuncut.org/ and other Uncutters worldwide. FIGHT for a Foreclosure Moratorium! Foreclosure = homelessness. Resist the American Legislative Exchange Council, Grover Norquist and Citizen's United. #Austerity for the wheeler dealers, NOT the people.
USuncutMN supports #occupyWallStreet, #occupyDC, the XL Pipeline resistance Yes, We, the People, are going to put democracy in all its forms up front and center. Open mic, diversity, nonviolent tactics .. Social media, economic democracy, repeal Citizen's United, single-payer healthcare, State Bank, Operation Feed the Homeless, anti-racism, homophobia, sexISM, war budgetting, lack of transparency, et al. Once we identify who we are and what we've lost, We can move forward.
