Economic Report of the President 2013

Economic Report of the President transmitted to the Congress March 2013 together with the Annual Report of the Council of Economic Advisers, March 15, 2013

  • “This year’s Economic Report of the President describes the progress we have made recovering from the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. After years of grueling recession, our businesses have created over six million new jobs. As a nation, we now buy more American cars than we have in 5 years, and less foreign oil than we have in 20 years. Our housing market is healing, and homeowners and consumers enjoy stronger protections than ever before. But there are still millions of Americans whose hard work and dedication have not yet been rewarded. Our economy is adding jobs, but too many of our fellow citizens still can’t find full time employment. Corporate profits have reached all-time highs, but for more than a decade, wages and incomes for working Americans have barely budged. As President Obama has said, “A growing economy that creates good, middle-class jobs–that must be the North Star that guides our efforts.”
