WASSERMAN SCHULTZ STATEMENT ON NOVEMBER 2014 JOBS REPORT

Weston, Fla. – U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (FL-23) released the following statement today after the economy added 321,000 jobs in November, the strongest month in three years, and unemployment held at 5.8 percent, the lowest level in six years:

“To recover from the Great Recession and get our economy on solid footing again, President Obama and Congressional Democrats sought to balance tough decisions with smart investments. With today’s jobs report, we are seeing further proof that our strategy is working. Nearly five years of uninterrupted private sector job growth have added about 11 million jobs to the economy, and not since the end of the Clinton Administration have we seen as strong of a year as 2014. Knowing the work ethic of the American people and the vision the President has for the future, I am more confident than ever that we will see expanded growth and increased opportunities for working families.”
