Republicans are urging President Joe Biden to tap the brakes on new federal spending after a disappointing jobs report, but the White House and congressional Democrats are still signaling full speed ahead.

GOP lawmakers are especially concerned additional unemployment benefits are keeping people from rejoining the workforce as the economy reopens and the pandemic recedes, though they believe the disappointing 266,000 new jobs, barely over a quarter of what was projected, and uptick in the jobless rate to 6.1% casts doubt on the entire project of repeated $2 trillion spending bills.
