Reaction to President Obama's Jobs Speech by Alliance for American Manufacturing (AAM)
Alliance for American Manufacturing (AAM) Executive Director Scott Paul offered the following statement on President Obama’s Jobs Speech:
"The President is right about two things: We must
invest in America's infrastructure and the time for action is now. We
hope Congress will swiftly approve a sizable and sustained
infrastructure bill. Such an action would begin to rebuild America,
make our economy more efficient and our businesses more competitive,
and boost the demand for manufactured materials like steel. Most
importantly, it would create good-paying jobs.
"We have outlined other measures
that would create American jobs and that have broad support among
voters. We look forward to working with the Administration and Congress
to enact an effective jobs plan over the coming weeks."
