Travis Childers: Hard at work for Mississippians

Travis has been busy since the voters in north Mississippi elected him to office. Let's look at some of the key legislation Childers has worked on since he has been in Washington.

• …introducing a six-point energy plan to provide immediate relief from high gas prices and long-term solutions to our nation's energy crisis through increased drilling and domestic energy production and investment in alternative energy and conservation;

• … support for the bipartisan American Housing Rescue and Foreclosure Prevention Act of 2008 in response to America's mortgage crisis, which has taken a tough toll on working families in North Mississippi;

• … cosponsoring the bipartisan Small Business Health Options Program (SHOP) Act to make it easier for small businesses to provide quality, affordable health care to their employees;

• … authoring the Invest in Small Business Act of 2008 , which makes it easier for small business to attract investors by cutting taxes on small business investors and increasing the number of small businesses eligible for tax cuts.

I would venture to say that Travis Childers has already done more for the regular folk in his district in 90 days than Roger Wicker did in 16 years.

Let's make sure he stays in Washington. Give a little change to Travis to help in his bid for reelection.
