Neal, McGovern Blast Jobs Report

Area lawmakers are blaming the poor July jobs report on the Trump Administration's policies.

Congressman Richard Neal says the president's tariffs are not only bad economics, but also an attempt to shake down other nations.

Congressman Jim McGovern called on House Republicans to push back on the White House, especially with Americans beginning to feel the impact of tariffs.

The report said the U.S. economy added just 73-thousand jobs last month, well below estimates.
