CONTACT: Brendan Daly/Jennifer Crider 202-226-7616 Pelosi Statement on June's Tepid Jobs Report
Washington, D.C. – House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi released the following statement today in response to the tepid jobs report that showed only 121,000 new jobs created in June, while real wages have remained stagnant over the last three years. Growth in payroll employment has been anemic under the Bush Administration, averaging only 42,000 per month compared to job growth of 237,000 per month under the Clinton Administration. Below are Pelosi’s statement and a chart showing how Republicans have turned their backs on the middle class:
"President Bush and Congressional Republicans are crowing about the economy even while it continues in the wrong direction for most American families.
"The President just doesn’t get it. Many Americans are living paycheck to paycheck and families are struggling to make ends meet – as gas prices and health care costs are doubling, oil prices remain at record level, and real family income has stalled. Republicans continue to drive up America record national debt with tax breaks for their Big Oil cronies, while denying a pay raise for 15 million Americans.
"Democrats have a New Direction for America that brings economic opportunity and security to all Americans – not an economy that work for just the wealthy few and Big Oil cronies."

Okay, Nancy, now put your money where your mouth is and give away your millions of dollars to these "struggling families."
I don't know about you, Nancy, but I'd love to be a "big oil cronie."
It's the start of summer, so both employers looking and people who want to look are down; nothing unusual.
Define: most American families
Those on the dole or unwilling to work, I suspect.
Do you realy think that anyone in their right mind listens to this Traitor/Treason Democrat witch and her vermin Democrat cohorts? She makes sick, this useless excuse for a human being!!!
Ain't THAT the truth!
The only problem I have with you, is that you sugar coat things and don't really speak your mind.
"The President just doesn’t get it. Many Americans are living paycheck to paycheck and families are struggling to make ends meet – as gas prices and health care costs are doubling, oil prices remain at record level, and real family income has stalled. Republicans continue to drive up America record national debt with tax breaks..."
just listen to the hypocrisy in the same statement:
"gas prices and health care costs are doubling, oil prices remain at record levels......."
"Republicans.................tax breaks".
So Pelosi is going to lower health care costs and gasloine prices by having the federal government take more taxes from us? Right? NOT
Liberals continue to bet against the US economy, and that is a loosing bet.
Nancy Pelosi is herself a business owner.
I wonder how well she treats her employees.
I'm guessing there's a 0% chance that she allows them to unionise.
Yikes!!!!!!!!!!!
Nancy missed another opportunity to keep her mouth shut.
There translated what Ms. Nitwit actually means!
LMAO, she uses the Clinton recession years to come up with the lowest average she can work up for Bush's job creation figures, ignoring the fact that job growth during the Bush RECOVERY period has average well into the 100,000 jobs created range each month. This witch hasn't had word one to say about the economy for years now, but with one job creation report she calls "tepid," suddenly she's interested in talking economics again. Such dishonesty.
If the b-tch is so concerned about gas prices, why does she keep opposing drilling for more supply in ANWR? Pure dishonesty.
