Follow the first 100 hours agenda

At Congresswoman Anna G. Eshoo's place

The big ones they don't have yet are:
- raise minimum wage to $7.25 (still not enough)
- Allow stem cell research
- Implement the 9/11 commission's recommendations
- Provide prescription drug negotiating authority
- Cut interest rates on student loans in half
- Invest in new sources of energy

Only the 9/11 commission bill will pass without major revisions. The minimum wage will cost a lot of benefits to small business (where small is not really small). The student loans will not pass the house unless everything existing is grandfathered in and the rates only apply to a very small number of people and the lenders get extra fees. Etc.
