Sandy Adams Weighs In on National Unemployment

Rep. Sandy Adams, R-Oviedo, who is challenging incumbent U.S. Rep. Suzanne Kosmas in November, offered her take on the news released on Friday that unemployment grew across the nation in August.

"Now is the time that we return America back to the people," said Adams late on Friday."Our country cannot afford new taxes and continued out-of-control spending.The government should get out of the way of business by reducing taxes and regulations on small businesses, the main economic driver of job growth in America."

Adams ripped into Kosmas for backing the Obama stimulus package and called for the extension of tax cuts passed in 2001 and 2003 which were backed by President George W. Bush.
