Cruz: ‘Obama Economy’ Is Denying the People to Achieve the American Dream

Cruz: The ‘Obama Economy’ Is Denying a Fair Opportunity To Achieve the American Dream (RealClearPolitics)

CRUZ: "You know, Trish, 3.7 million women have entered poverty under the Obama economy. The median income for women has dropped $733 dollars an hour. I agree with Governor Bush that our number one priority needs to be economic growth. We need to get back to historic levels, 3 percent, 4 percent, 5 percent growth. Reagan in ’84, we had 7.2 percent growth! That lifts millions of people out of poverty and into prosperity. That’s what I’m campaigning on -- tax reform and regulatory reform so people like my dad, washing dishes as penniless immigrants, can have a fair opportunity to achieve the American Dream. That’s what the Obama economy is denying them."
