Time to Focus on Growing Our Economy, Not Growing Our Debt

Press Release

The Senate resumed legislative work this week amid a continuing jobs crisis and economic uncertainty. On the floor of the Senate, Senator McConnell said, "The jobs crisis we're in continues for millions. Many millions more are worried about the future." He continued, "Americans are looking for a new direction. It's one that focuses on growing our economy, not on growing our nation's debt."

The number-one goal of the Republicans in 2012 is to continue to make it easier for American small businesses to create jobs by focusing on three things: fundamental tax reform, regulatory reform and energy security. Senator McConnell said, "Republicans will continue to make the case for policies that will spark an economic revival and create new opportunities for struggling Americans. And we hope that Democrats will join us."
