168,000 Connecticut workers began this day without a job. Tonight many of them will lie awake worried about losing their homes and providing the very basics for their families.
For them, today’s jobs report is a reminder that Washington isn’t working. And for Washington, it should serve as a warning that enough is enough.
It is unconscionable that this administration is pushing for more of the same job-killing policies that have brought our economy to its knees and tested the will of the American people.
The latest jobs plan being offered by the President across the country is simply part two of a failed stimulus plan we know didn’t work.
As a proven job creator, I know that what small businesses need to create new jobs for people who want so desperately to work are fewer taxes, not more; fewer regulations, not more; and less government spending, not more.
The jobs our people so desperately need will not be created by government. We did not become the greatest nation in the world by ignoring the entrepreneurial spirit of the American people.
We’ve listened to enough of the professional politicians’ political bickering and put our faith in failed plan after failed plan, only to be disappointed. The American people are speaking loud and clear about their expectation for real solutions and it’s about time Washington listens.
