Boehner responds to announced July unemployment
Congressman Boehner: Washington’s Focus on Spending, Taxing, & Regulating Is Hurting Job Growth
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman John Boehner (R-West Chester) today
released the following statement regarding the latest unemployment
report from the U.S. Department of Labor:
“Today’s unemployment report is more proof that all of the Washington
spending, taxing, and regulating is devastating our economy. While the
American people are asking ‘where are the jobs?’ the Democrats running
Washington are determined to punish small businesses with higher taxes
and more red tape – including hundreds of new regulations last month
alone – and to keep their spending binge going at all costs. Instead of
more jobs, they’re creating more fear, more uncertainty, and more debt.
“To get our economy back to creating jobs, Republicans are working to
expand American energy production to help lower gas prices, repeal the
job-crushing health care law with all of its mandates and tax hikes,
adopt a Balanced Budget Amendment to stop Washington from spending
money it doesn’t have, and more. While the Senate and White House have
resisted these efforts so far, I hope Democrats will take this
opportunity to ‘pivot’ away from their failed ‘stimulus’ policies, and
work with us to implement our Plan for America’s Job Creators and
remove the government barriers that are hurting job growth.”
