共和党对奥巴马讲话的回应聚焦经济和“机会不平等”

U.S. Representative Cathy McMorris Rodgers of Washington state focused on addressing what she called "opportunity inequality" as she gave the Republican response to President Barack Obama\'s State of the Union speech.
  
She said Obama is focused instead on inequalities in income, and that his administration\'s policies are widening the gap between where people\'s lives stand now and where they want to
 
The congresswoman said Republicans have plans to add jobs without increasing government spending, and to improve education and training programs to better prepare people for the workforce.
 
She also said Republicans want to let workers keep more of their paychecks through lower taxes, and more affordable energy and healthcare.
 
She also briefly highlighted a desire to address the nation\'s immigration system, saying reforms must begin by securing the country\'s borders.

罗杰斯说，奥巴马关注的重点是收入不平等，而奥巴马政府的政策正在使人民目前的生活和他们希望的生活之间的差距不断加大。

她说，共和党人的计划能够在不必增加政府开支的情况下提高就业，改善教育和培训项目，让人们为工作岗位做更充分的准备。

罗杰斯还表示，共和党人希望通过降低税率和提供更负担得起的能源和医疗，让工人们能够支配他们工资单上更多的钱。

罗杰斯还简单地谈到希望解决美国的移民改革。她说，改革必须从加强边防开始。
