Press Release: Campaign Action Alert Re: OBAMA JOBS SUMMIT, 12/09

November 13, 2009

Statement of Melinda Gopher, Candidate for the U.S. Congress-2010

President Obama has announced a December Jobs Summit to address the high unemployment situation in America. Since announcing my campaign in early October—I have been speaking out about the need to address the poverty and lack of job creation among the urban Indian population in Montana, as well as on the reservations. I am announcing a November 20th meeting in Great Falls to seek public comment—this will be held at the Great Falls Public Housing Authority, Parkdale Hall, tentatively scheduled for noon-5 pm.

I am organizing a Montana delegation to travel to the summit for this historic and unprecedented effort. I would like the support of the urban Indian communities to designate those that will begin to work to make a difference on this issue. Please---use my online resources to make your voice heard and to stay in contact with my campaign. They are listed below---thank you for your help! We can make this happen.
