Kerry Pledges to Create Higher-Paying Jobs

By MARY DALRYMPLE, Associated Press Writer

PHILADELPHIA - John Kerry headed to closely divided Pennsylvania and Wisconsin to tell voters he could produce better, higher-paying jobs from the White House than President Bush has.

"I believe that when you put in a good day's work, you deserve a good day's pay," Kerry said in remarks prepared for delivery at town hall meeting in Philadelphia.

"I believe in creating jobs that don't just let you survive, but let you get ahead. Jobs that let you pay your bills, send your kids to college, buy a house, save a little for retirement and go out to dinner or a movie every once in a while." <snip>

Since Bush took office in January 2001, the economy has lost 1.1 million jobs. Pennsylvania and Wisconsin saw their unemployment rates land slightly below the national 5.5 percent average last month. <snip>
