[ti:12-06 Weekly Address - Ensuring Americans Feel the Gains of a Growing Economy]

[00:00.62]Hi, everybody. 
[00:02.90]Just in time for the holiday season, we now have another piece of good news about the pace of our economic recovery.
[00:08.16]Last month, our businesses created 314,000 new jobs. 
[00:13.61]And that’s not a fluke 
[00:15.13]C it keeps up the solid pace of job creation we’ve seen all year long. 
[00:19.46]November was the tenth month in a row we’ve added more than 200,000 jobs. 
[00:24.36]So far this year, our economy has created 2.65 million new jobs. 
[00:29.17]That’s the most of any year since the 1990s 
[00:31.84]C even with a full month to go. 
[00:34.80]All told, our businesses have created 10.9 million new jobs over the past 57 months. 
[00:39.93]And that’s the longest streak of private-sector job creation on record.
[00:44.59]We also know that the upswing in job growth this year has come in industries with higher wages. 
[00:50.60]Overall wages are on the rise. 
[00:52.17]And that’s some very welcome news for millions of hardworking Americans. 
[00:55.75]Because even though corporate profits and the stock market have hit all-time highs, 
[01:00.39]the typical family isn’t bringing home more than they did 15 years ago. 
[01:04.39]And that still has to change. 
[01:06.52]And a vibrant jobs market gives us the opportunity to keep up this progress, and begin to undo 
[01:12.90]that decades-long middle-class squeeze.
[01:15.14]But first, we need the outgoing Congress to pass a budget 
[01:18.84]and keep our government open. 
[01:20.83]A Christmas shutdown is not a good idea. 
[01:24.12]Then, when the new Congress convenes in January, we need to work together 
[01:28.20]to invest in the things that support faster growth in higher-paying jobs.
[01:32.25]Building new roads and bridges creates jobs. 
[01:35.68]Growing our exports creates jobs. 
[01:38.21]Reforming our outdated tax system and our broken immigration system creates jobs. 
[01:43.57]Raising the minimum wage would benefit nearly 28 million American workers, 
[01:47.29]giving them more money to spend at local businesses 
[01:50.30]C and that helps those businesses create jobs.
[01:53.80]America, we still have a lot of work to do together. 
[01:56.55]But we do have real, tangible evidence of our progress. 
[02:00.30]10.9 million new jobs. 
[02:01.84]10 million more Americans with health insurance. 
[02:04.53]Manufacturing has grown. 
[02:06.38]Our deficits have shrunk. 
[02:08.37]Our dependence on foreign oil is down.
[02:10.48]Clean energy is up. 
[02:12.33]More young Americans are graduating from high school and earning college degrees than ever before. 
[02:17.38]Over the last four years, this country has put more people back to work than Europe, Japan, and every advanced economy  combined.
[02:24.69]The United States of America continues to outperform much of the world. 
[02:28.10]And we are going to keep it up until every American feels the gains of a growing economy 
[02:32.41]where it matters most 
[02:33.93]C in your own lives.
[02:35.80]Thanks, and have a great weekend.
