With a warning to the American people that 700,000 jobs are at risk if Congress does not act, President Obama promised, again, to ignore the law of the land and act without them to stave off such an outcome.
In his weekly address “Working When Congress Won’t Act” the president said, “I want to work with Congress to create jobs and opportunity for more Americans. But where Congress won’t act, I will.” Obama explained that he wants to prevent depletion of federal funding that has been set aside to rebuild the transportation infrastructure in America. But Republicans, he says, “seem to have very different priorities” — protecting the rich.
