Toomey Welcomes Obama To Pennsylvania

Today, Pennsylvania U.S. Senate candidate and former small business owner Pat Toomey released the following statement welcoming President Obama to Pennsylvania:
“I’d like to welcome President Obama to Pennsylvania today. It’s always great when the President of the United States comes to our state, and I look forward to working with him in the United States Senate. There are a number of policies I think we can work together on, from education reform to expanding U.S. exports.”
“Unfortunately, most of the policies President Obama has been pursuing have prevented us from having the kind of economic recovery that we could and should be having. Bailing out failing companies, massive spending, huge tax increases, a cap-and-trade energy tax, and government-run health care – this agenda is keeping unemployment high, and Joe Sestak is in favor of all of it. It’s time for a change. We should end the bailouts, get spending under control, make the 2003 tax cuts permanent, and cut payroll taxes to encourage businesses to hire new workers. I’m optimistic that we can have a booming recovery, but we need to focus on the kind of policies that will put Pennsylvanians back to work.”
