This Week in Pictures

Unemployment Filings Continue to Fall
""
"The number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits unexpectedly fell last week, dropping to its lowest level in nearly 45 years as the labor market tightened further, bolstering expectations of faster wage growth this year."

A Good Year? Republicans Think So!
""
"Democrats have a "crumbs" problem. More specifically: The GOP-passed tax plan that led companies to announce bonuses that House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi dismissed as "crumbs" compared with "the bonus that corporate America received" may be popular enough that it can lessen the danger of Republicans being wiped out by a blue wave in this year's midterm elections."
 

Tax Cuts = Surplus? 
""
"The Congressional Budget Office says that federal revenues in January added up to $362 billion. That's an increase of $18 billion— or 5.2% — from the year before. As a result, the government ran a surplus of $51 billion that month, which is equal to the previous January."

""
"Democrats have harshly criticized the Republican tax cut, but so far, they're not demanding a repeal.
Several high-ranking Democrats passed up the opportunity Wednesday to say the party will campaign on repealing the law or undoing parts of it."
 
 

America's Bipartisan Spirit
""
"This is what State of the Union speeches used to be. On a bright January morning in 1986, the Space Shuttle Challenger lifted off from its Cape Canaveral launch pad and broke apart over the Atlantic Ocean. The nation was shocked, and deeply shaken. President Reagan postponed his scheduled State of the Union address by several days. When he did address Congress and the country, his words were comforting."
 

Pelosi Chooses Politics Over 'Good' Bill
""
"House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi spent more than eight hours on the House floor Wednesday protesting the spending bill for not including an immigration package — but then called the bill "good" during a news conference Thursday.”
