Republicans Fall Schedule Shows Republicans Still Don’t Have a Jobs Agenda

WASHINGTON, DC – House Democratic Whip Steny H. Hoyer (MD) released the following statement today after Majority Leader Cantor sent a memo to House Republicans outlining the Floor schedule this Fall:
“I’m disappointed that House Republicans still do not have a real, comprehensive jobs agenda that will create the millions of jobs we need to get Americans back to work. Instead they have a list of proposals to end regulations intended to protect consumers and the environment, making their agenda more about partisan ideology than jobs. While it’s important to continually review regulations to ensure they strike the right balance between protecting consumers and allowing businesses to grow, that is not a jobs agenda. Democrats’ have a real jobs agenda: the Make It In America plan to restore economic growth by creating manufacturing jobs and revitalizing American industry and innovation. I hope this Fall Republicans will work with us to move pieces of this plan forward so more families will make it in America.”
