Hi There!! My name is Marilyn Love. It is so good to be with Democrats tonight. I always feel like I am at a reunion when I am with you all. I am here tonight to represent my husband, Tom Love. Tom is running for the U.S. Congress District 24 against the incumbent Kenny Marchant. Mr. Marchant is a good man. He also is loyal to the Republican Party and the Republican Agenda. As a congressman his loyalty was to be to his constituents above his loyalty to his party. He has failed his constituents.
Tom feels he will put his constituents first and foremost. He promotes keeping jobs here in America rather than outsourcing to what can be considered "slave camps".
He is for Universal Health Care because all people should have the right to decent health care and should not go bankrupt due to medical bills.
Our country need to provide for more nursing schools. Our shortage of nurses is atrocious. There are nurses who come from various companies who are part-time and do not get benefits that a full-time nurse would. Patients are suffering the consequences for our shortages. Some hospitals cannot admit patients at certain times because they do not have the personnel. Because of "for profit" insurance companies, even insured people are not getting the care they need.
Tom believes our education system must be overhauled. Our children should not be studying to take tests. The ability to read should be fundamental. Teachers should be recompensed for their abilities and skills. Teachers should not have to dig into their own pockets for classroom materials. To attract the best teachers, we must raise our teachers' pay. Colleges should be affordable to all students who can make the grade.
We definitely should support our unions in every way possible.
Tom supports alternative energy resources in place of fossil-fuel use.
This is an exciting and historical year. A woman and a black man are vying for the presidency. Democrats are voting in record numbers. They have woke up from their apathetic sleep.
Americans are sick and tired of worrying about housing, food, gas, and their children's education.
They are tired of the "Class Wars" where the very rich have tax breaks and the middle-class bear the brunt of the taxes appropriated. Poverty in America is at an all-time high.
What happened to the American Dream that has become our American Nightmare??? We assumed our children would be better off than we were. We assumed wrong. Twenty-five percent or more of children over 25 are going back home. They cannot sustain their existence on the wages they are earning.
Tom and I have been married 32 years. He has always held jobs where the public was his primary concern. He will put his whole heart and soul into the position. He will not disappoint or fail his constituents. We will appreciate any support and help in this campaign. Your contributions will be most appreciated. Volunteers will be most welcome. Thank you.
