Huizenga Statement on Meeting With President Obama At the White House This Morning

Today, after the House Republican Conference met with President Obama and members of the cabinet at the White House for a wide-ranging discussion on job creation and government spending that touched on a number of issues including the debt ceiling, Medicare, and energy, Rep. Bill Huizenga, MI-02, issued the following statement:

 

“As a small business owner, I know that a key factor in job creation will be restoring certainty to employers. This includes lowering our country’s enormous burden of debt – and creating policies that are going to change the trajectory of the out-of-control spending that got us here in the first place. I’ll be interested to see what the President presents to us in a month or so as a result of the Biden group. Today’s discussion was a good start, especially in finding out where the parties are at and where we agree. As the President suggested, and as I told him one-on-one after the meeting,  it’d be nice to have more of these substantive discussions and less rhetoric, so we can hear and respond to various viewpoints.”
