If for once President Obama will work with Republicans we can get things done" says House economic leader
Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON D.C. U.S. Congressman Kevin Brady of Texas the top House Republican on the Joint Economic Committee and a senior member of the House Ways & Means Committee made the following statement on President Obamas 2015 State of the Union speech today:
I predict the Presidents stale outdated demands for higher taxes wont create a single new job grow the paycheck of even one middle class family or help one more college graduate start their career. We need to focus on growing our local economy not Washingtons.
I have a different vision for the next two years. Im convinced that if the President for once will work with Republicans in Congress we can get things done including fixing the broken tax code opening up more of the worlds customers for American products including energy and loosening the constraints of red tape so local businesses can begin hiring again."
Brady notes that even with the improving economy the Obama recovery is still short 5.8 million private sector jobs at this point in an average recovery with a American family of four missing $1069 monthly due to stagnant paychecks.
