PLAN FOR AMERICA'S JOB CREATORS
(Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, the seasons may be changing but our Nation's
jobs crisis is not. With unemployment still at 9.1 percent and no
measurable job growth in August, I'm glad to hear that this
administration is ready to find common ground with Republicans to help
create jobs.
But before he addresses the Nation tonight, the President should take
a close look at our Plan for America's Job Creators and know that House
Republicans have already paved the path to job growth for him.
So far this year, House Republicans have passed more than a dozen
bills that do exactly what countless employers around the country are
asking of Washington: Get out of the way so that our private sector can
begin creating jobs again.
This fall, we'll continue to roll back job-killing regulations and
rebuild long-term confidence for job creators. We all hope the
President will join us in this effort.
