We are workers at Bain owned Sensata. Sensata is shipping our jobs to China. We are calling on Mitt Romney to come to Freeport, IL and save our jobs!

And FYI Twitter bomb begins at midnight. #Sensata #BainPort

Obama IS NOT invested in Sensata. This is a Right-Wing LIE. As a former IL State Senator, he has a state retirement plan that has shares in the company. Romney invested directly. State plans differ from personal investments. Romney will directly profit from Sensata and other of Bain's companies sending their jobs and factories to China. Obama will not.
