WASHINGTON–(ENEWSPF)– November 5 – Tuesday’s election results and today’s jobs numbers are a clarion call to the next Congress that job creation and fixing our economy must be the number one priority. With the unemployment rate stagnant at 9.6 percent, it’s no wonder people are angry, frustrated and disappointed. Despite a welcome increase of 151,000 jobs in October, nearly 15 million Americans are still unemployed. The unemployment rate has been essentially unchanged since May. Over 40 percent of the unemployed have been jobless for more than six months and hundreds of thousands will lose benefits at the end of the month.
