As you probably know, President Obama will be in Richmond this Friday to talk about his jobs plan. Not to be outdone, Rep. Cantor announced a jobs event for the same day. Virginia Organizing members showed up at Rep. Cantor's campaign event last week to make their voice heard that we need jobs here in Richmond. Rep. Cantor and President Obama need to hear from the unemployed residents who are struggling. If you have something to say to the President or Rep. Cantor, here's your chance:
