dinner will recognize the outstanding volunteers and activists who
helped us achieve this great accomplishment.
The keynote speech will be

compromise has made it difficult for the country to move towards a
better economic climate.

will discuss the risks of business as usual in the power sector and
how they can affect us all.
Finally, State Representative and
U.S. Congressional candidate Joe Miklosi will be speaking about his
vision of the American dream and how restoring jobs is the surest
way to solve the country’s economic woes.
