President Obama said Friday that he’ll discuss a “broader package of ideas” for the economy next week.
“We are confident that we are moving in the right direction, but we want to keep this recovery moving stronger and accelerate the job growth that’s needed so desperately all across the country,” he told reporters outside the White House after calling the Labor Department’s jobs report “positive news.”
