Rep. Manzullo Responds to
President Obama’s Address to Congress

(WASHINGTON) Congressman Don Manzullo (R-Egan) tonight issued the following statement responding to President Obama’s Address to Congress:

STATEMENT

“We will certainly work with the President on some of the proposals he discussed tonight to help employers put Americans back to work, such as extending tax incentives to encourage business equipment purchases.

But the best way the President could spur job creation in America would simply be to announce a moratorium on tax increases and unnecessary regulatory burdens that threaten on our job creators.

These were the main concerns I heard from small employers during several business roundtables I hosted in northern Illinois the past month.

Such an announcement by the President would give our employers the certainty and confidence they need to expand their businesses and put Americans back to work.”
