Michigan businesses: “hiring people right now is harder than it has ever been”

House Democrats, like Elissa Slotkin and Haley Stevens, claimed the American Rescue Plan would put workers back on the job.

Instead, the United States posted the biggest jobs report miss in 23 years because it turns out when you pay people not to work, they don’t work.

Brain Calley, CEO of the Small Business Association of Michigan, reaffirmed this reality saying, “We’re hearing from our members that hiring people right now is harder than it has ever been. I don’t think a lot of people in government truly understand that the employer is not in a position where they simply have to beat unemployment (pay). You might be able to compete with the money, but you can’t compete with 100 percent time off.”

Elissa Slotkin and Haley Stevens’ socialist agenda isn’t putting people back on the job, it’s destroying Michigan small businesses and the economy.
