Progressive candidates deliver 36,000 ‘We stand with the 99%’ petitions to Boehner

Seven progressive House candidates and Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC) members delivered nearly 36,000 “We stand with the 99%” petitions directly to House Speaker John Boehner’s Capitol Hill office Wednesday afternoon.

The petitions stated: “We stand with the 99% — we need an economy that works for all of us, not just the richest 1%.”

They were received by Boehner’s press secretary after she refused entrance to the group, despite the “welcome” sign on Boehner’s office door.
