“Meet Mr. 1%” is a new website from the AFL-CIO that cuts through the campaign chatter and provides an interactive, graphic-focused look at GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s record—and provides a chilling look at his wrecking plan for America’s working families.
The site offers fast facts on how Massachusetts suffered during the years Romney was governor there, his record at Bain Capital and the economic attack plan he will put in place if elected President.
As the site shows, Romney’s plan for the future includes:
• Slashing 10 percent of federal jobs.
• Pushing states to enact “right-to-work” for less laws.
• Ending project labor agreements and prevailing wage for building trades workers.
• Barring workers from joining unions through majority sign-up
