It’s been more than 250 days since the GOP took control of the House, and Americans are still asking: Where are the jobs, House Republicans?
The middle class is hurting, and the Republicans' only answer is a plan to end Medicare and give tax breaks to Big Oil and companies that ship jobs overseas.
- Republican Majority Leader Eric Cantor revealed the GOP’s summer agenda – and what’s missing? A single jobs bill on the floor or a clear jobs plan.
- The only jobs bills to come to the floor this Congress have been Democratic proposals, and the GOP has voted "no" on every one.
- Democrats will continue to promote and pursue our Make It In America agenda to create jobs and keep America number one.
