Boehner: Obama Polices ‘Make It Harder For Americans To Find Work’

Boehner: Obama Polices ‘Make It Harder For Americans To Find Work’

House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) released the following statement on the March jobs report, which showed that the U.S. economy added 88,000 new jobs:

“The president’s policies continue to make it harder for Americans to find work. Hundreds of thousands fled the workforce last month and unemployment remains far above what the Obama administration promised when it enacted its ‘stimulus’ spending plan.

“To help grow our economy and expand opportunity for all Americans, Republicans passed a balanced budget that addresses our spending problem, unleashes North American energy like Keystone, and fixes our broken tax code, and voted to replace the president’s sequester with smarter cuts and reforms. One of the best things President Obama can do is follow the House and outline a balanced budget next week – one that includes entitlement reforms that are not conditional on enactment of more tax increases, which will suppress growth instead of encourage it.”
