default and the hundreds of thousands out of work are not just government employees as my colleague from cobb connecticut pointed out, defense contractors are beginning to furlough workers. these industries are the heart and soul of so many communities, and when these jobs are lost, there is a multiplier effect. these are the good jobs. but it affects the entire community. and this cascading series of economic problems will get worse each day we keep this government closed. both sides need to work together. but we have already significantly compromised on our side. again, as the senator from connecticut pointed out, we are vogue for a continuing resolution at the house levels, not our levels. a multibillion-dollar gap, we've accepted that at least for intertrim period for six weeks or so of the continuing resolution, we accept the house's position. and for many of us who have been arguing coadvisoriously to end the sequestration to increase spending, to increase investment, this was a significant compromise. we're not keying that re -- seeing that reciprocated on the other side. it's my way o

hat is double ty cobb. and the fifth one we saw the american people rise up, we saw the house of representatives listen, and i'm confident in time the u.s. senate will listen as well to the american people. so, going forward how do we keep fighting? i will tell you what i'm trying to do is two things. number one, tell the stories. tell the stories of the people who are hurting. we've launched a national website, makedclisten.org. i would encourage each of you to go home, go to makedclisten.org and upload your stories. upload your stories. somehow obama care impacting you, your family, your jobs. because one of the things we can do in the senate is help tell a story, help making it real how people are hurting. the second thing i'm trying to do is working to continue to energize and mobilize the grassroots to help all of us. the only way we win this is to win it together. how many of you have your cell phones with you? i'm going to ask each of you to take out your cell phone and text the word "growth" to 3373
