Issue Position: Jobs and the Economy

Issue Position

Senator Inhofe knows that the private sector creates jobs -- not the government. He is committed to a limited government, and has aggressively fought against out-of-control government spending. With a high unemployment rate, American families and workers have struggled to make ends meet. In the past few years, we have seen a massive increase in the size of government while over-regulation has negatively impacted the economy by threatening private sector job creation.

Senator Inhofe advocates for lower taxes and less government intrusion as proven means of improving the nation's economy. He was outspoken and sometimes alone in opposing the stimulus and the various government bailouts that failed to improve our economy.
