Come on guys take a second and sign this petition.

This is absolute BullChit that MacCain calls himself a real American Hero and than tries to sneak in this repeal of a 95 year old law to protect our American Mariners and American Shipbuilders .


A little explanation of the Jones Act

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merchan...ne_Act_of_1920

And here is what our good Man MacCain is trying to pull and where you can sign the petition.

This will also have an affect on Gov contractors in areas like Iraq and Afghanistan if / when another deployment is needed. DBA and Jones are very tied to each other...

People in the US think we have an illegal immigration problem, I bet most don't even know that most are here under different countries act, hence why it s so hard to get rid of people in the USA...

Thanks again, for posting.
