since the lansing michigan census school
all once the college station scene for steve watson decency
so the and merit lansing michigan mera merged in arizona
aligned with us uh...
also has roots in lansing to surprisingly enough he's got this new
mayors for america dot what is it first
that coming up with that kind of thinking there is for america dot com
melbourne out tell us about what you're doing
uh... well qualified to do with the power couple power patriotic but usually
work ahead of her that recorded our own stimulus
others are really big mayors can do we met up here in washington about the
group of mayors and we're gonna expand it even bigger group of mayors racially
challenge to municipal leaders everywhere across the country
to look first by local and buy american
look first to buy american
uh... before you go overseas
beyond that we think that this is a tremendous could be a dramatic economic
stimulus uh... municipalities in the united states kind of a hundred and
fifty billion dollars that's billion with a b and goods and services every
year and unfortunately was not a lot of overseas and we're talking about from
small today we're talking about paper clips pencils paper police cars fire
trucks pieces deals sewer piping you name it uh... municipalities by a lot of
goods innovators just even get an additional ten percent of that shifted
to domestic purchasing uh... we believe that we can create in two thousand jobs
right here so this is in a different uh... talking about spending the money
to isolate i think we do need to spend some additional money but that is just
harnessing the money that we're already spending and the directing it towards
domestic purchasing so we had a great launch today i'm very excited about this
i'm looking forward to talking the mayors in townships ever-rising tallied
up is from all over the country we're gonna be pushing his hand pushing it
hard out to grow at
incorrect a stimulus here a sustainable stimulus here in the in the in this
country's occurrences from concepts
laxity shannon lucid michigan yet
well udall it had a rough innocent all
uh... it we've just begun
yeah and uh... i need to partner with mayors from all over because the idea
pounded the strength of this year's
that uh... inot electoral contribute what do you think of a point
but you know the engines we already have a by local ordinance in lansing sony
that we we will pay up to five percent more to keep it
to keep the money in the local economy but the uni's
is that for me to start treating connote and my backyard toward life at all by
local and i would have become local madison wisconsin
uh... indianapolis and they take a look at all even sing at the local so that
they don't make a product in their shitty then bill go to this network if
you were going to create this you know that that purchasing network so that you
can quickly ascertaining advocate the paper certain product is made in this
country could propel people upset
that they can't get it in america
i had this recently with medallions for the marathon and people so that i know
that they were made in china
and it said that though you know kilowatt but they all we couldn't get
them here or another i'd know that the medallions for the for the special
olympics
i made in america your time you couldn't go to that company all you know about
that
in a lot of ten digit we asked me to look at the pledge on this record that
come to take the pledge it says you'll look for a fuel truck you know you are
at least price it and then hit the beach community if they're willing to pay will
pay a little bit more in our case which i will pay up to five percent or because
we believe if you keep it local you're keeping money in the economy will
reverberate back in the paper evidence
uh... locally and in this country right you'll you'll eventually send money
coming back to an increase in the tax taste it is
your recital as your local economies absolutely commonwealth like this you
know we don't we feel that the american dream is under siege in return from
quiet we feel that we're going to put you on industry and the last ten years
we've lost another thirty percent of our manufacturing jobs
uh... over five million manufacturing jobs lost what would not content just to
sit idly by and see that happen we want to do something now and that's not
something that doesn't depend on an act of congress you know i appreciate what's
been going to watch and accuracy what the president tried to do but but
deficit we don't have to look to wash it will have to look at congress we can do
this may have to do this right now and by the way individuals can turn a light
shone jewishness who feel like a good mid-america catholic but i can't find
it'll go online dot com aging now online from a u_s_ company at eight thirty
bucks
i get a good quality product
and that a lot of products and we should be rewarding those people who are
creating jobs in america
and i think that you especially when it comes to pack
but i can't government leaders that the other characteristic official ability
officials city official county official
if you're spending taxpayer dollars you should be buying american goods in
creating american jobs
yeah absolutely are you
ten-year marriage for me
arika dot com web site are you building a database that will
will be of value to individual merits and incision to expect to happen however
your you're cute apprenticeships at the beginning
and and probably we're going to go for checking back in with the power because
well for reaching out to manufacture dot there that
but you talk about what would happen in life in your hometown yet much
adjustment each other
by the community we've gotten together with tom wicker they call me

database and we're going to be looking
social cognition dollars were to be probably having update business
associate membership so that we can help build this database so that that
community can quickly go online and see what they are

here in this country if i get a bunch of may have to get above the city and
county commissioner dick we've got couple million staples are staplers

illegal nikolai shops all of this country pledges network that land since
ill-advised the seeking some sort of
years
stomatal density and i got your card from g_m_
but you had a lot better than the backbone of this country
and double salunkhe shabbos medium-size businesses intimately whom we've lost
too many of them but but you know we can challenge the status of the companies
that want a bigger swale to go to make it i mean if we need medallions ahead or
t-shirts for little league team you know we got to go to a company that they you
know i would like to buy x_ number it with all these different cities you know
we could do it and population and get a group discount waiting to get a better
price and and and have startup companies in this country but your point which i
think it's time for too long we did
