After two years of hard work and debate, Congress has passed a highway bill that will help fuel our economy by creating roughly 500,000 new jobs, as well as address many critical transportation needs in Ohio and the 18th Congressional District.

The bill that job creators and out-of-work Americans need us to pass is the one that ensures taxes won't go up - one that says Americans and small-business owners won't get hit with more bad news at the end of the year.

Spending on infrastructure will help employment.

A farm bill in Washington State is a jobs bill.

I will support legislation that benefits the American worker and prevents the outsourcing of American jobs.

We must invest in infrastructure development and rebuilding communities to create jobs.

We need a national infrastructure bank to rebuild our crumbling highways and water and sewer systems, thereby putting additional people back to work.

We can only create good jobs if we make smarter investments in infrastructure and do more to support small businesses, not stiff them.

This is just the beginning of a new era for America's workers.

Our nation's infrastructure needs are tremendous, and they're growing.
