Congressman Moulton's Statement on President Obama's State of the Union Address

Washington, D.C. - Congressman Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) offered the following statement in response to President Barack Obama's State of the Union address, delivered Tuesday evening on the Floor of the U.S. House of Representatives.  Moulton was honored to have Ludia Modi, an AmeriCorps member from Lynn, as his guest.

“It was an honor to watch President Obama deliver his sixth State of the Union address before Congress this evening,” said Moulton. “The President acknowledged that these have been tough economic times for our country and that, while more work needs to be done, we have come a long way. We are finally seeing people who have been out of work for extended periods find good paying jobs. But the reality is, Congress must do more to create the conditions for job growth and a stronger middle class. I look forward to working with the President and my Democratic and Republican colleagues to support the innovation, entrepreneurship, and hard work of the American people.”
