Right now, we’re calling out House Speaker John Boehner for being a #BoehnerFail on jobs.

Click the “Sign and Tweet” button above to join our #BoehnerFail Twitter Flash Mob.

Then, keep the flash mob going by sending as many #BoehnerFail tweets as possible right away. The flash mob will go on as long as the #BoehnerFail tweets continue—and with your help, we’ll make the #BoehnerFail hashtag permanent. Here are some sample #BoehnerFail tweets:

America wants to work @SpeakerBoehner. So why won’t you pass the American Jobs Act? #BoehnerFail http://act.ly/4aq

Don’t be a #BoehnerFail, @SpeakerBoehner, join @AFLCIO and @BarackObama to pass the American Jobs Act. http://act.ly/4aq

John Boehner is @SpeakerBoehner for now. But if he doesn’t create jobs fast, he’ll become #BoehnerFail soon. http://act.ly/4aq

@SpeakerBoehner still hasn’t paid workers for Rep. John Mica’s FAA shutdown. Huge #BoehnerFail.

0 job creation bills passed @SpeakerBoehner. #BoehnerFail, get to work! http://act.ly/4aq

Class warfare for the rich, not jobs, is @SpeakerBoehner’s agenda. #BoehnerFail. http://bit.ly/oa6vu8 http://act.ly/4aq

.@BarackObama understands real math; @SpeakerBoehner understands political calculation. #BoehnerFail. http://bit.ly/oAkKUY http://act.ly/4aq

This bridge needs work @SpeakerBoehner so do America’s Workers. Don’t be a #BoehnerFail, create jobs! http://bit.ly/ocHerD http://act.ly/4aq

The jobs crisis is rightfully a “make or break” issue for voters. Because what happens on the jobs crisis won’t just determine who wins the next election—or who has a job today—but the kind of country America becomes for our children and our grandchildren.

Republicans in Congress ran for office on job creation promises. But since taking office, they have been a complete failure in that regard. It’s shocking that Republicans broke their promises so quickly—and so lightly—when so many across America are out of work.

It’s hard to blame any one person for such massive failure. But there is one man who is in charge of the U.S. House of Representatives and controls its agenda—he alone decides what gets brought to the floor for a vote.

Speaker Boehner needs be held accountable. He refused to bring bills that would create jobs to the floor of the House. And he abused voters’ trust—dragging America through the mud with his manufactured, debt ceiling “crisis.” We hope you’ll help call him out on it by joining the #BoehnerFail Twitter Flash Mob.
