Obama Job Council Endorses GOP Job Creation Approach  
January 17,2012 

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman John Boehner (R-West Chester) issued the following statement in response to recommendations released today by President Obama’s Council on Jobs and Competitiveness endorsing GOP approach to job creation. 

“With this report, President Obama’s own panel of experts has endorsed the approach to job creation House Republicans have been pursuing for more than a year. American job creators understand that we must ease the regulatory burden on small businesses, foster private-sector innovation, transition to a more competitive tax system, and utilize the vast energy resources we have here at home. Nearly 30 House-passed job bills are awaiting action in the Senate, most of which address the recommendations made today. With American small businesses still suffering from the misguided policies implemented by the President, there is no excuse for these pro-growth bills to collect dust any longer.  I urge the President to call on Senate leaders to take up these House-passed jobs bills so we can provide the solutions American job creators say are needed to put people back to work.”
