Ways & Means Ranking Member Dave Camp (R-MI) made the following statement on this morning’s GDP data:

Washington D.C. – “This morning’s data simply reaffirm what Americans already know – our economy is hurting.  Congress can and should act to help American families and our economy through these difficult times.  Republicans have offered a plan that, based on analysis by the President’s senior economic advisors, could create 6.2 million jobs in the next two years.  I look forward to continuing to work with President Obama to craft a stimulus plan that will create private sector jobs now – when Americans really need them.”
