PA GOP Statement On President’s Comments

HARRISBURG — Republican Party of Pennsylvania (PA GOP) Chairman Rob Gleason released the following statement regarding President Obama’s recent comments calling the private sector “just fine”:

“President Obama’s comments show that he is completely out of touch with Pennsylvanians who have to deal with the negative effects of his policies every day. Medical device companies who are taxed an additional 2.3% thanks to Obamacare aren’t ‘doing fine.’ Pennsylvanians struggling to find jobs where unemployment is 8.2% nationally aren’t ‘doing fine.’ Governor Corbett’s jobs-first agenda has helped put Pennsylvania back on track, but it’s clear we need a President who understands our economy and can get all Americans back to work as well.”
