Americans Deserve Leadership on Jobs, Economy

Jun 11 2013

As the American people remain focused on creating jobs and growing the economy, the administration's credibility gap on these and other issues continues to widen.

Credibility Gap Widens

Jun 04 2013

President Obama's credibility gap isn't limited to the recent scandals plaguing his administration. Obama and Washington Democrats are failing the American people on the two most important issues to them: jobs and the economy.

"Glitches and Bumps"

May 07 2013

ObamaCare's incentive to employ part-time workers means fewer hours and lower wages for American workers. Nearly 280,000 Americans involuntarily entered part-time employment in April.

Train Wreck

Apr 23 2013

ObamaCare, President Obama's signature piece of legislation, is hamstringing economic growth and job creation. It accounts for more than $1 trillion in new taxes, 20,000 pages of burdensome regulations, and will lead to 800,000 fewer jobs. Even the bill's co-author, Senator Max Baucus, is calling it a "train wreck."

Carter-Era Policies, Carter-Era Results

Apr 17 2013

After piling more than $1.7 trillion in new taxes on the American people, President Obama is now is calling for an additional $1.1 trillion in new taxes. Senate Republicans reject raising taxes on hard-working Americans and support pro-growth policies that will grow the economy and get more people back to work.

Balance the Budget for Jobs, Growth, and Opportunity

President Obama is set to release his budget tomorrow (two months late), and it's reportedly filled with more of the same failed economic policies.

A Budget that Grows the Economy, Not the Government

Republicans support a budget that grows the economy, not the government. Unfortunately, the Senate Democrats' budget contains more of the same job-crushing policies that have hamstrung economic growth: more taxes, more spending, more debt.

Grow the Economy, Not the Government

Over the past four years, President Obama and Senate Democrats have piled $1.7 trillion in new taxes and $518 billion in new regulations onto job creators while adding nearly $6 trillion to the national debt. We need to grow the economy - not the government.

Policies That Create Growth

Congress and the president promised the American people spending cuts a year and a half ago - Republicans intend to keep that promise.

Obama's Sequester

At the 11th hour, Senate Democrats this week are proposing to replace the president's sequester with another gimmicky, designed-to-fail tax hike bill. Republicans believe there are better ways to lower the deficit, but do not support replacing spending cuts with tax hikes.

GOP Vision for Jobs and Growth

Now that the tax issue is over, it's time to address Washington's spending addiction. Spending reform means more jobs, greater economic growth, and more opportunities for America's middle class.

Empty Talk

President Obama's promises to address runaway Washington spending - including his pledge to cut the deficit in half by the end of his first term - have fallen flat. For the first time in history, the U.S. has seen four straight years of deficits of $1 trillion or more and the national debt has ballooned by more than 50 percent during the same period of time. Senate Republicans stand ready to work with the president to rein in Washington's out-of-control spending in order to create jobs, economic growth, and opportunity.

Time to Address Runaway Government Spending

Now that the tax issue has been resolved, reining in out-of-control government spending is now the focus. One way to control spending and the growth of government is for Congress to pass a budget - something Senate Democrats haven't done in nearly 4 years. With more than $5 trillion added to the debt since then, the time is now to end Washington's spending addition and for Senate Democrats to fulfill their legal obligation to pass a budget.

Mr. President, Where Are the Spending Cuts?

The American people agree: Washington doesn't tax too little; it spends too much. We know the president wants to raises taxes, but many people are still wondering, where are the spending cuts?

"Absolutely"

Last week, Secretary Geithner said the administration is "absolutely" prepared to go over the fiscal cliff if it doesn't get its way on tax rate hikes. Instead of raising taxes on nearly 1 million small businesses that employ nearly 25 percent of the national workforce, we should enact pro-growth reform, cut runaway spending, and reform entitlement programs that drive the national debt.

Reid vs. Reid

In 2005, when Democrats were the minority party in the Senate, Senator Reid said breaking the rules to change the rules of the Senate was "un-American" and a "partisan political grab." Today, now that Democrats are in the majority, Senator Reid is singing a different tune.

Balanced?

President Obama recently said the the goal of fiscal cliff negotiations "has to be jobs and growth." Yet, the president's latest tax and spend plan does just the opposite. In order to avert the fiscal cliff, Senate Republicans' plan includes stopping the small business tax hike, enacting pro-growth reform, reforming entitlement programs that drive the national debt, and cutting runaway spending.
