Obama Weekly Address

George Wenschhof



President Obama talks about his belief that a rising, thriving middle class is the true engine of economic growth, and that to reignite that engine and continue to build on the progress we’ve made over the last four years, we need to invest in three areas: jobs, skills and opportunity.

Obama discussed his Friday visits to a dredging-equipment manufacturer and an elementary school in Baltimore. Those visits, he said, underscored his goals to create a “rising, thriving middle class.”

“Too often, our politics aren’t focused on the same things you are. Working hard. Supporting your family and your community. Making sure your kids have every chance in life,” Obama said.

The president said he planned to visit other cities in the coming weeks to promote his economic plan.
