Remarks of President Barack Obama Weekly Addre The White House April 5, 2014 Hi, everybody.Today, our economy is growing and our businees are consistently generating new jobs.But decades-long trends still threaten the middle cla.While those at the top are doing better than ever, too many Americans are working harder than ever, but feel like they can’t get ahead.That’s why the budget I sent Congre earlier this year is built on the idea of opportunity for all.It will grow the middle cla and shrink the deficits we’ve already cut in half since I took office.It’s an opportunity agenda with four goals.Number one is creating more good jobs that pay good wages.Number two is training more Americans with the skills to fill those jobs.Number three is guaranteeing every child acce to a great education.And number four is making work pay – with wages you can live on, savings you can retire on, and health care that’s there for you when you need it.This week, the Republicans in Congre put forward a very different budget.And it does just the opposite: it shrinks opportunity and makes it harder for Americans who work hard to get ahead.The Republican budget begins by handing out maive tax cuts to households making more than $1 million a year.Then, to keep from blowing a hole in the deficit, they’d have to raise taxes on middle-cla families with kids.Next, their budget forces deep cuts to investments that help our economy create jobs, like education and scientific research.Now, they won’t tell you where these cuts will fall.But compared to my budget, if they cut everything evenly, then within a few years, about 170,000 kids will be cut from early education programs.About 200,000 new mothers and kids will be cut off from programs to help them get healthy food.Schools acro the country will lose funding that supports 21,000 special education teachers.And if they want to make smaller cuts to one of these areas, that means larger cuts in others.Unsurprisingly, the Republican budget also tries to repeal the Affordable Care Act – even though that would take away health coverage from the more than seven million Americans who’ve done the responsible thing and signed up to buy health insurance.And for good measure, their budget guts the rules we put in place to protect the middle cla from another financial crisis like the one we’ve had to fight so hard to recover from.Policies that benefit a fortunate few while making it harder for working Americans to succeed are not what we need right now.Our economy doesn’t grow best from the top-down;it grows best from the middle-out.That’s what my opportunity agenda does – and it’s what I’ll keep fighting for.Thanks.And have a great weekend.Remarks of President Barack Obama Weekly Addre The White House March 22, 2014
Hi, everybody.This week, I visited a community college in Florida, where I spoke with students about what we need to do to make sure our economy rewards the hard work of every American.More specifically, I spoke about making sure our economy rewards the hard work of women.Today, women make up about half of our workforce, and more than half of our college graduates.More women are now their families’ main breadwinner than ever before.But in a lot of ways, our economy hasn’t caught up to this new reality yet.On average, a woman still earns just 77 cents for every dollar a man does.And too many women face outdated workplace policies that hold them back – which in turn holds back our families and our entire economy.A woman deserves to earn equal pay for equal work, and paid leave that lets you take a day off to care for a sick child or parent.Congre needs to act on these priorities.And when women hold most lower-wage jobs in America, Congre needs to raise the minimum wage.Because no woman who works full-time should ever have to raise her children in poverty.Now, the good news is that in the year since I first called on Congre to raise the minimum wage, six states have paed laws to raise theirs.More states, counties, and cities are working to raise their minimum wages as we speak.Small businees like St.Louis-based Pi Pizzeria, are raising their wages too – not out of charity, but because it’s good for busine.And by the way, Pi makes a really good pizza.And in this year of action, I signed an executive order requiring federal contractors to pay their employees a fair wage of at least ten dollars and ten cents an hour.But if we’re truly going to reward the hard work of every American, Congre needs to join the rest of the country and pa a bill that would lift the federal minimum wage to ten dollars and ten cents an hour.This wouldn’t just raise wages for minimum wage workers – its effects would lift wages for nearly 28 million Americans acro this country.It will give businees more customers with more money to spend, and grow the economy for everybody.So call up your Member of Congre and let them know it’s time for “ten-ten.” It’s time to give America a raise.A true opportunity agenda is one that works for working women.Because when women succeed, America succeeds.We do better when everyone participates, and when everyone who works hard has the chance to get ahead.That’s what opportunity means – and it’s why I’ll keep fighting to restore it.Thanks, everybody, and have a great weekend.Remarks of President Barack Obama Weekly Addre The White House February 22, 2014 Hi, everybody.Restoring the idea of opportunity for all requires a year of action from all of us.Wherever I can act on my own, I will – and whenever I can ask more Americans to help, I’ll do that too.In my State of the Union Addre, for example, I asked more busine leaders to take action to raise their employees’ wages.Because even though our economy is growing, and our businees have created about eight and a half million new jobs over the past four years, average wages have barely budged.So it’s good news that, earlier this week, one of America’s largest retailers, The Gap, decided to raise wages for its employees beginning this year.Their decision will benefit about 65,000 workers in the U.S.That means more families will be able to raise their kids, finish their studies, or keep up on their bills with a little le financial stre and strain.Gap’s CEO explained their decision simply – he said, “[It’s] right for our brands, good for our people, and beneficial to our customers.” And he’s right – raising Americans’ wages isn’t just a good deed;it’s good busine and good for our economy.It helps reduce turnover, it boosts productivity, and it gives folks some more money to spend at local businees.And as a chief executive myself, that’s why I took action last week to lift more workers’ wages by requiring federal contractors to pay their employees a fair wage of at least $10.10 an hour.In the year since I first asked Congre to raise the minimum wage, six states have paed laws to raise theirs, and more states are working on it as we speak.But only Congre can finish the job and lift Americans’ wages acro the country.Right now, there’s a bill before Congre that would boost America’s minimum wage to $10.10 an hour.That’s easy to remember – “ten-ten.” That bill would lift wages for more than 16 million Americans without requiring a single dollar in new taxes or spending.But even though a majority of Democrats, Independents, and Republicans acro the country support raising the minimum wage, Republicans in Congre don’t want to give it a vote.Hardworking Americans deserve better than “no.” Let’s tell Congre to say “yes.” Pa that bill.Give America a raise.Because here in America, no one who works hard should have to live in poverty – and everyone who works hard should have a chance to get ahead.Thanks, and have a great weekend.
