Mock Congress -Representative Paul Ryan - Republican - Wisconsin-http://www.house.gov/ryan/

I chose Representative Paul Ryan because I agree with his ideas about keeping jobs in America, Making health care choices available, and working to make America a safer and greener country to live in.


 * __Issue 1 - Reduce Outsourcing American Jobs (Keep the jobs here in America)__**

Keeping Jobs in the States and not sending work overseas. This is a big issue as we need people working and earning a paycheck. If people do not have an income, they cannot spend money and therefore businesses close their doors and we lose more jobs. It is a battle we must win nationally. Keeping jobs in America is a first priority to help American's in this downturned economy. Tariffs should be charged to the country shipping into America so we would be more willing to buy American and not overseas, especially if it meant increasing jobs in America.


 * __Issue 2 -Health Care Changes__**

Another Issue is to allow people in America many places to seek good health care at a lower cost. Many people cannot afford to go to the doctor so they choose not to. They avoid going to the doctor because it costs money which they do not have. Changes to allow people to go to good doctors close to their neighborhoods is needed.

Lastly, making the planet Earth greener could also be a major benefit in not just Wisconsin, but throughout the entire world. Right now, people are littering, using way too much heat and gas and other things that they don't seem concerned about. There are many things we could do to stop this. I would like to see more carpool lanes on highways and offer incentives to those that us hybrid cars or take buses or trains. This could help reduce pollution which is deadly to our wildlife and other natural resources. We can ask local farmers to supply our school systems with fresh produce. Government should promote businesses that focus on making America cleaner and safer and give them the funding they need.
 * __Issue 3 - Government Spending for a Greener America__**

__ 5 Interesting Facts __

 * 1) The governer is James Doyle
 * 2) It is nicknamed "The Badger State"
 * 3) The Capital is Madison
 * 4) Known as the Dairy Capital of the U.S
 * 5) Became a state on May 29, 1848 as the 30th state of the U.S


 * I strongly believe that you should pass my bill. The bill I am writing is the Conservation of Natural Resources. The purpose of this bill is to protect and conserve natural resources and specific wildlife from any harm. This is important towards the wildlife and ourselves in many ways.
