WASHINGTON, DC—U.S. Senator John Thune (R-S.D.), Chairman of the Republican Policy Committee, made the following statement regarding the Department of Labor’s September employment report released today.
“Today’s poor employment report is yet another sign that the Democrats’ economic policies are failing America. For the last two years, the policies of the Obama administration, supported by Democrat majorities in both chambers of Congress, have stifled economic growth. As the national unemployment rate continues to hover over 9.5 percent for the 14th straight month, the American people are rightfully angry at the failed Democrat leadership coming out of Washington.”
