571000 Fewer Manufacturing Jobs in U.S. Since Democrat Stimulus Passed

House GOP Counters Democratic Job Claims width=170Texas Insider Report: Washington D.C. Just days after House Democratic leaders touted their new report claiming credit for creating 136000 manufacturing jobs since January House GOP leaders unveiled Obama Administration data contradicting the claim showing U.S. manufacturing jobs have cratered since the controversial $862 billion stimulus package passed at the urging of President Obama. Since the failed stimulus was passed 707000 manufacturing jobs in America have disappeared said U.S. Congressman Kevin Brady (R-TX) the top House Republican on the Joint Economic Committee. Its been even harder on manufacturing workers since Nancy Pelosi became Speaker of the House - 2.3 million manufacturing jobs have been width=200lost. With so many families struggling how can Washington Democrats possibly be proud of these devastating economic failures? asked Brady. House Democratic leaders report claiming credit for creating 136000 manufacturing jobs since January is titled Understanding the Economy: Promising Signs of Recovery in Manufacturing. With the American people asking where are the jobs and Washington Democrats trying out new talking points on manufacturing its worth looking at their record and that record is abysmal: more than 700000 manufacturing jobs have been destroyed in America since the trillion-dollar stimulus became law said House Majority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio). The Washington spending spree President Obama has set in motion isnt helping our economy; its hurting our economy.  Now Washington Democrats refuse to rule out passing even more job-killing policies like a national energy tax or a card check for union bosses in a sour grapes lame duck session following the election." According to Bureau of Labor Statistics data the net loss of manufacturing jobs since the stimulus became law in February of last year totals 571000.  Even the small growth in manufacturing jobs since /January arent the result of the stimulus. Economists credit inventory restocking and exports to other countries as the main reason for improved signs in the manufacturing sector. Said Brady Washington Democrats promised that massive government borrowing-and-spending would spur consumer spending in the U.S. That hasnt happened. Ironically it is sales abroad that are helping revive Americas flagging manufacturing sector. That must be especially embarrassing for Washington Democrats since they refuse to pursue trade agreements that open dynamic new markets for American products and services throughout the globe says Brady.
