"I appreciate the President's close attention to the economy. Those of us in Washington need to do everything we can to encourage job creation. I don't mean just any jobs, but quality opportunities that pay enough income to sustain families and build careers. I look forward to seeing the details of the President's plan and working with him on economic growth. I'm open-minded on his proposals. I'm interested in plans that will work quickly, that will do the most good for the most people, and that will pass in a bipartisan way, given the realities of working in a closely divided Senate."
