“Today’s announcement is yet another disappointment to every small business in District 11 and every family across the country who struggle to keep their business afloat and keep food on the table. President Obama continues to say that our economy is ‘getting stronger by the day’; however the American people are getting tired of the rhetoric and want to start seeing actual numbers. For the past year, hard-working taxpayers have been asking the President and the Democrat Leadership, “Where are the Jobs?” They have had enough. It is time to stop the spending and start working on a fiscally conservative, commonsense plan to lower the deficit and get Americans back to work.”
