Pete Bennett is President of Rescue American Jobs.

Rescue American Jobs began in late June 2003 as a meager informational website. The public response to the website was so tremendous that an organization was formed in August 2003. In the few short months since August 2003, we have developed membership and chapters across 46 states.

They are a non-partisan, non-profit organization. Preserving the economic stability of the American workforce is an issue where left meets right and right meets left. Their membership statistics are living proof: 31% Republican, 30% Democrat, 18% Independent, and the remainder evenly split across third parties.

Their success across party lines is evidence of the absence of responsible leadership and the need for a strong representation of the American workforce, both blue- and white-collar.
