are on fixed incomes (without cost of living raises) trying to meet our

year, whether you consume gas or not during the summer months that's
nearly $8 million dollars they will make just from the increase for the
city of Youngstown, alone.?

that really need help or even create a business?that would hire 20
people at fair wages per year?

Spending one hour can?save $144 dollars! They will repsond to the
expressed sentiment of the public, it only makes sense for us to make
our opinion known. PLease encourage your family, friends and people of
the faith to spread the news and commit to being present. Filling
those?Chambers with our presence will send a clear message.
