On Thursday, President Obama is scheduled to lay out a new plan to create jobs at a Joint Session of Congress. On Monday, President Obama spoke in Detroit, Michigan, at a Labor Day rally.
President Obama: “We’ve got roads and bridges across this country that need rebuilding. We’ve got private companies with the equipment and the manpower to do the building. We’ve got more than one million unemployed construction workers ready to get dirty right now. There is work to be done, and there are workers ready to do it. Labor is on board. Business is on board. We just need Congress to get on board. Let’s put America back to work.”
