These job numbers are a striking example of an amazing economy. January's employment report is a powerful reminder that President Bush's pro-growth economic policies are working. Over the past five years, healthy GDP growth, low inflation and high productivity have been constant reminders that our pro-growth policies have helped our economy become one of the fastest growing industrialized economies in the world.
In his State of the Union address President Bush called on all Americans to do more to maintain our leadership role in the global economy. The President proposed the American Competitiveness Initiative to increase investments on the research, math and science skills that will help fuel our ability to develop new technologies, create higher paying jobs and raise our standard of living. This initiative will help us lead the 21st century economy.
America has the best and brightest workers and the products and services they produce can compete with any in the world.
