Obama visits company as new job figures come out
Law & Politics
President Barack Obama will visit a small business and talk about job-creation Friday shortly after the government releases unemployment figures for July.
The president will tour the facilities of Gelberg Signs in the District of Columbia and publicly applaud efforts the company is making to expand and hire more workers.
Later, he'll host a reception at the White House for Elena Kagan, newly confirmed to become the next Supreme Court justice.
Friday's report on the nation's employment situation is expected to show that private companies added only 90,000 jobs in July, not nearly enough for healthy economic growth.
