Focus stimulus on jobs

The Spokesman-Review

So House Speaker Nancy Pelosi thinks that hundreds of millions of “our” tax dollars spent on contraceptives (“Meet the Press,” Jan 25) should be part of the stimulus package? I guess that makes sense, less of those pesky babies.

Please call your representatives and urge them to keep this massive bloated spending bill confined to things that will actually do some stimulating, like creating jobs via corporate tax breaks. The last thing we need now is the government to stretch this thing out like the New Deal did.
