Good Friday
May 4th, 2007 by SpokesbloggetteNew job figures were released today by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. In April, 88,000 jobs were created and now more tyhan 7.8 million jobs have been created since August 2003 when the Bush tax cuts went into effect. The unemployment rate remains at a very low 4.5 percent.
These figures make it even more vital that we keep President Bush’s tax cuts in place and not let them expire as the Democrats have assumed in their recently passed budget. Spending restraint plus keeping taxes low is the key to this strong economic growth.
