Laborers' Plans 250k Anti-bailout Calls

The Laborers' International Union is making 250,000 robo-calls to lobby against the bailout — and will contact another quarter million members through snail mail, e-mails and text messages.

The 500,000-member construction union, which endorsed Obama, wants $100 billion to go for a massive infrastructure program instead.

"Investing in America has an immediate impact on our economy. The U.S. Department of Transportation estimates that 47,500 good jobs can be created for every $1 billion investment building America," a spokesman wrote in a statement.
