House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) scolded Republican Senators at her weekly press conference Thursday for refusing to cooperate with a stalled jobs bill.

“Show us the jobs,” Pelosi said.

After countless attempts to advance the bill and create more jobs, Pelosi said Republican Senators need to recognize that the American people want and need more opportunities to succeed.

“What did middle-class families ever do to Republicans in the Senate that they would snuff out every opportunity for job creation that has been sent to them,” the Speaker said.

Despite relentless GOP opposition, the Speaker said that “we are on the path to create more jobs this year than eight years of the Bush administration.”

Pelosi also lauded middle-class tax cuts saying they served as a means to “inject demand into the economy.”
