Randy Altschuler Calls for A New Way of Doing Business in Washington

Entrepreneur Randy Altschuler, Republican candidate for US Congress in New York's First Congressional District, made the following statement today in reference to the Department of Labor's release of September's 26-year-high unemployment rate of 9.8 percent:

While we continue to shed jobs, we are reminded that bloated deficits brought about by wasteful economic spending and industry bailouts are the wrong prescription for what ails our sluggish economy," Altschuler stated.
