Obama To Knock Republicans And Emphasize Jobs Thursday


WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama on Thursday will urge Congress to move forward on new job creation measures and pounce on Republicans for "obstructing efforts to rebuild" the U.S. economy, a White House official said.

Obama travels on Thursday to Buffalo, New York, where he will give a speech on the economy that highlights his administration's achievements after the most recent U.S. jobs report showed the largest increase in jobs in four years, the official said.

"He'll urge Congress to act quickly on new job creation measures, including proposals to strengthen small businesses so they can grow and hire," the official said on Wednesday.

"And he'll call on Republicans to stop sitting on the sidelines and obstructing efforts to rebuild our economy for the sake of short-term political gain."

1. Another example of Congress dragging the jobs bill out over time.
And how beneficial it is.
