Sen. Kay
Bailey Hutchison (R-Texas) said President Obama’s jobs speech Thursday night was a “repeat of
the same” failed policies and ideas for economic growth and job
creation. She said three years of Obama’s policies have made the economy
worse.
“I agree with the president that the most urgent task before us is
reviving our weak economy, however tonight what we heard from the
president was a repeat of the same policies and promises that have gotten
us nowhere,” Hutchison said in a Web video posted Thursday.
Hutchison called a lowering of regulation the “best way to create jobs.”
She
urged a repeal of Obama’s healthcare plan and criticized the president for
not calling for an end to the plan himself in the speech.
“Looking forward, we need to focus on bringing down debt, cutting
unnecessary spending, reining in burdensome regulations and above all, creating the much-needed jobs,” Hutchison said.
