The Chamber’s President and CEO, Tom Donohue appeared on CNBC’s Squawk Box this morning, to preview next Thursday’s State of American Business Address.

He talked about wanting Washington to enact policies that will create enough economic growth to “create the number of jobs we need to put America back to work." He reinterred his call to act on "shovel-ready projects” in the energy and infrastructure arena, starting with the Keystone XL pipeline.

He also reminded viewers that the Chamber will be "vigorous" in educating voters this election season on the need for pro-growth, job-creating policies.
