President Obama: "I want a jobs bill on my desk without delay"
January 28, 2010
President Obama urges Congress to send a jobs bill to his desk:
"The House has passed a jobs bill that includes some of these steps. As the first order of business this year, I urge the Senate to do the same. People are out of work. They are hurting. They need our help. And I want a jobs bill on my desk without delay.
But the truth is, these steps still won’t make up for the seven million jobs we’ve lost over the last two years. The only way to move to full employment is to lay a new foundation for long-term economic growth, and finally address the problems that America’s families have confronted for years."

JOBS Bill MUST CREATE JOBS THAT CREATE GROWTH if employment to be sustained. Of new jobs bill, only jobs for small business and clean energy will create growth.
Creating jobs for infrastructure, teachers, firefighters and public employees is rhetoric, as this is not where majority of job losses came from, nor do these jobs produce economic growth.
Assistance must be given to companies of ALL SIZES, including hiring incentives, growth incentives, limiting outsourcing etc.
