AWB Urges Congressional Delegation to Support Bailout Plan

AWB President Don Brunell today urged members of Washington state's congressional delegation to support the bailout plan currently awaiting passage in the nation's capital. Said Brunell of the measure:

“Swift action is critical. Washington businesses are paralyzed by the uncertainty in the economy. The tax receipts that fund our federal, state and local governments and their ability to fund education and public safety are at risk over the constricting credit markets and the lack of confidence in the stock markets.

 

“The financial well-being of all our members and all Washingtonians hinges on a resolution to the financial crisis. We urge you to act immediately."
