If you are living in the City and looking for your garbage to be picked up in a timely manner, help is on the way! Green jobs IS the way to re-invent and re-vitalize the land mass we call the City of Detroit. Opportunities in manufacturing products from the land are abundant. Green jobs in energy will spur development of domestically produced fuel that will cut costs for truckers and city owned vehicles. The increased costs of development will be reinvested into the community because of the increase in people needed to do work.
Someone has to fix the numerous pot holes, keep the water running, and process the information because one or two people cant do it alone.

Bio Fuel Trucks and Teamsters |
We already have the services of Michigan State University's agriculture extension that can work in a partnership to foster research and development of alternative energy sources. In a partnership with the Teamsters, Union truck drivers will be encouraged to use alternative fuel made from Industrial Grade Hemp grown in Michigan. Converting all city vehicles to run on bio fuels will stimulate and invigorate activity, ideas and positive thinking that the world can use to make a better place. We want to have the second coming of Berry Gordy with a green thumb. (

Air Force 4 - US Secretary of State's
Personal Aircraft/Mid Range |
I want to give another big shout out to the Green and White with the impending land development project for the old State Fairgrounds. Let by MSU Alumnus Earvin "Magic" Johnson and Marvin Beatty, jobs will be created with the addition of one of Magic's signature theatre complex with a new Amtrak rail station. The complex will also serve as one of the central hubs for the City Wide/Regional light rail system. Debating over 3.3 miles for a light rail track is an insult to City Residents who can walk that distance when we really need a city wide system that will include transportation to and from Metro Airport and, the renovated Tuskegee Airman International Airport with commercial air service. The upgraded airport will handle aircraft from Southwest, Delta, Magic Johnson Enterprises, Jay-Z, John Travolta, and anybody else who wants to come here and do business. These are the projects that will create jobs and not debate jobs. This will be a benefit to the community and create job opportunities for City residents along with creating a new revenue stream for the City.

One Home at a Time
We need to create jobs! |
Regional recycling centers located in strategic areas of the city by district will create job opportunities for Detroit citizens to get jobs. Senior Citizen positions will be available for people who want to work up to 20 hours a week just to keep busy. In the northwest corner of District 2, there are tracts of land that needs to be revitalized through the construction of homes using concrete made from Industrial Hemp. Hemp-Crete is a cross between Concrete and the male Cannabis plant. It is mixed together to make things like drywall so that you can use it to rebuild a home. Detroit will have it's own version of HGTV (
www.hgtv.com )where people will have the opportunity to "pimp their home" with construction and home modernization ideas. (

Sen. Virgil Smith & Rick Bowers |
Our opponent in District 2 does not support Magic Johnson's plan for Detroit and, has vowed to defeat the entire process in favor of upscale homes at prices that are not affordable to anyone making under $100,000 a year. There are many other land areas in Detroit including District 2 that have open tracts of land to build a gated community. If elected, I would prefer more public employees providing timely garbage pickup, lights, road maintenance, City Wide Wi-Fi zones, Police, and Firefighters.

#PushCUSH for Detroit |
A vote for Rick Bowers is a vote for Rick Snyder and the GOP. If you care about this City then I am empathically asking you to vote early for me at WC3! Wayne County Community College's East and West Campus locations will be open Monday through Friday from 9am to 5pm to allow you to vote early by absentee. You have to check a box saying that you need to vote early because you will not be available to vote in person on election day of November 5th. In other words, you can go to work on Nov. 5th and don't have to rush from work or home to vote. With this length of time to vote, you have NO excuse to not vote and participate in your government.
Hopefully our City Clerk's office will have a web page online saying that your application has been processed and your vote will be counted.
#PushCUSHingberry for Detroit City Council!
Vote early for me at these locations:
Together we can change and maintain Detroit for a better quality of life.
Sincerely,
The Friends of George Cushingberry Jr. Candidate for Detroit City Council
The Man for YOU, in District #2
