Congressman Mark Schauer Meets With SEIU 517M Members

Congressman Mark Schauer (D-Battle Creek, 7th Congressional) had the opportunity to meet with members and staff in Lansing on February 19th. He discussed the status of Healthcare reform, the extension of unemployment benefits, a jobs bill and his agreement to co-sponsor H.R. 2104 the Safety, Efficiency and Accountability in Transportation Projects through Public Inspection Act. This act requires public employees perform the inspection on all state and local transportation projects. Its passage will ensure that public safety is protected, transportation funds are not wasted and projects are delivered in a timely manner.
