Obama Changes Tune on Layoffs
President Obama has changed positions on a very important issue to workers across the nation. In 2007, when then Senator Obama was campaigning for President, he urged those that were expecting cuts to let their workers know that they might lose their job.
Fast forward to now when the Obama Administration is saying that contractors with the government don't have to give their employees 60 days notice before the expected cuts on January 2, 2013. 60 days notice would come right before the election in November and sources say the White House is worried about that.
What do you think? Election year flip flop or true change of heart?
