Weprin Says Jobs Numbers Highlight Need to Cut Taxes for Small Biz, Make Big Oil Pay Fair Share

Statement

Date: Aug. 5, 2011
Location: Queens, NY
Issues: Taxes

David Weprin, candidate for Congress in New York's Ninth Congressional District, released the following statement regarding today's new jobs numbers.

"Today's new jobs numbers highlight how important it is that we send
someone to Congress who will work with the President to turn our economy around. That work needs to start by closing tax loopholes for Big Oil so we can start providing tax breaks for small businesses to help them grow and create jobs. Yet, while tens of thousands of New Yorkers remain out of work, the ultra conservative Tea Party Republicans have continued to demand more tax cuts for wealthy corporations instead of providing the American people with a comprehensive jobs plan that will put people back to work."
