How's this. Mr. President, the 99ers and long term unemployed have their very own debt ceiling that desperately needs to be raised as well. What are the immediate plans for benefits for the 99ers and Job Creation? Do we fall back to the same old business as usual, nothing getting done, nothing to address this segment of the Country? Please speak to us. New White House "Office Hours" on the Social Media 34243

Question:

@whitehouse When are we getting back to a focus on jobs? People outside of DC care more about work than bond ratings. #WHChat
