Claim: President Barack Obama's reelection strategist David Axelrod said on CNN's "State of the Union" Oct. 30 that "all economists agree" that the White House jobs bill "would create millions of jobs."

Axelrod, Oct. 30: Obviously the American Jobs Act, all economists agree would have a marked effect on economic growth and would create millions of jobs. We just have to get the Congress to act on it.
