Congressman Fattah Lauds President Obama for Leadership on Jobs
Congressman Chaka Fattah (D-PA), a Member of the House Appropriations Committee, Released the Following Statement Upon the Release of the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Employment Report for January 2012
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- "The addition of 243,000 jobs in January is a reaffirmation of President Obama's sound economic leadership. The unemployment rate fell to 8.3 percent last month, continuing the trend that has added 3.7 million jobs to our economy during 23 consecutive months of job growth. These numbers show that we are on the right track, but we are by no means finished. We will continue to fight to implement the president's economic policies, particularly the extension of the payroll tax cut, along with the additional steps that the president proposed in his State of the Union address. Under the President's leadership, we'll create an economy built to last."
