    Working America Recruits One Million Members to Fight for Good Jobs and the American Dream - U.S. Newswire
    'The common joke is that I'm not trying to make ends meet, I'm just trying to get those ends to wave at each other,' said Liz McClurken, a Working America member from Portland.

Working America is going to hold our elected officials and corporate leaders accountable for placing the American Dream back within reach of working Americans.'
