Interview
cont’d from pg 7
Implementing new reg-
ulations on Parent Plus
loans, which cost HBCUs
28,000 students, was hos-
tile. At the same time,
it is important to note
that, except for his irst
two years, which were
a missed opportunity,
President Obama faced
rabid opposition from
the Republicans. Indeed,
as soon as he took oice,
Senator Mitch McCon-
nell announced that his
top priority was to deny
President Obama a sec-
ond term. The president
did introduce a jobs bill
that could not clear Con-
gress. The Republicans
simply would not work
with him.

agenda might have been
placed on the Obama
administration’s
back
burner because of a hesi-
tancy on the part of black
leaders to question or
criticize the President?
JM: Absolutely! You
will not get fed in your
mama’s house if you do
not bring your plate to
the table. Some of our
leadership has been so
happy to be there that
they haven’t pushed our
agenda. I don’t know
how many of the record
conversations I’ve had
with African-American
leaders who would not
be quoted and refused to
make their sentiments
public.

KW: What grade would
you give Obama?
JM: Depending on the
day of the week it varies.
At the moment, though
there are just a few
months let in our Pres-
ident’s time in the Oval
Oice I’d like to give him
an incomplete and hope
he surprises me. Actual-

Black America he gets a

SUB-BIDS REQUESTED
We honor
the many
accomplishments
of African
Americans.
It is our primary goal as a labor union to better the
lives of all people working in the building
trades through advocacy, civil demonstration, and
the long-held belief that workers deserve a “family
wage” - fair pay for an honest day’s work.
A family wage, and the beneits that go with it, not
only strengthens families, but also allows our
communities to become stronger, more
cohesive, and more responsive to their citizens’
needs.
Our family wage agenda relects our commitment
to people working in the building trades, and to
workers everywhere. In this small way, we are doing
our part to help people achieve the American
Dream. This dream that workers can hold dear
regardless of race, color, national origin, gender,
creed, or religious beliefs.
