HOLTZ-EAKIN ON THE PRESIDENT’S PRESS CONFERENCE: I HOPE THE PRESIDENT TAKES SOME OF HIS OWN ADVICE

Washington – American Action Forum President Doug Holtz-Eakin today released the following statement on the President's press conference:

“As Moody's and the S&P have signaled this week, we must get serious on reducing our long term debt to avoid a potential downgrade; that means tackling entitlement reform. Yet, today the President once again outsourced his responsibilities to Congress. I hope the President takes some of his own advice, puts politics aside, and brings forward his own proposal that confronts our long term fiscal crisis,” Holtz-Eakin concluded.
