Statement from DFL Chairman Ken Martin on the State of the Union address

wh_blog_2015sotu2“Tonight President Obama addressed a nation with the lowest unemployment rate in six years, the fastest growing economy in more than a decade, the fourth-longest bull market since World War II, and 58 straight months of job growth.

“But the President knows that not everyone is playing a part in the nation’s economic recovery and work remains to be done.  He laid out a vision centered on creating opportunity for all, and how he will fight for everyday American families and continue to grow the middle class.

“President Obama continues to hope Republicans will join him in this effort to build on the progress we’ve already achieved, but he’s not going to wait on Congress. While Republicans continue to fight for those at the very top, we can count on the President will do whatever he can to help middle class families get ahead.”
