Congressman Doc Hastings Talks Jobs At Yakima RV Plant
YAKIMA -- Republican Congressman, Doc Hastings (District 4) was also in town Monday morning and talking jobs with the folks at Adventure R-V.
The republican congressman told KIMA he agrees with Senator Murray's assessment that Yakima has a skills gap.
"Let me put it this way," Hastings said. "Talking to the proprietors here, they could use more people. And they're having a tough time getting people."
Hastings also says Congress is far from done with the debt crisis in Washington.
He believes a balanced budget amendment is the best way to control government spending.
He voted for it in 1995 and says he'd vote for it again.
