House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) made the following remarks at a press conference with Republican leaders today: “Tonight we’re looking forward to hearing from the president and from our colleague Cathy McMorris Rodgers. Cathy will deliver a personal and conservative message about our desire to empower the American people. “Listen, this has been the House focus. We’ve passed dozens of jobs bills that continue to languish in the United States Senate. “You know, the president says he wants to make this year a ‘year of action.’ Well, sounds good, but if he wants to make it a year of action, let’s work together to pass Trade Promotion Authority that would expand exports and create more jobs in America. Let’s work together on building the Keystone pipeline and the tens of thousands of jobs that would be created as a result. Let’s work together to find common ground on the dozens of House-passed jobs bills that are sitting over in the United States Senate that really will help the American people have a better shot at a better job and higher wages.” See more at: http://www.speaker.gov/video/boehner-let-s-work-together-jobs#sthash.WL65FH9Q.dpuf
