LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Mayor Greg Fischer is touting job growth in his midterm report.

WDRB plans to meet with the mayor Monday morning to discuss the 12-page document published on Sunday.

It highlights job growth among Ford, GE and healthcare giant Kindred.

It also mentions the 55,000 degree program that aims to improve the number of college graduates.

While encouraged by growth, the mayor's report fails to mention that associate's degrees have slipped in the past two years.

His report also doesn't touch on his dealings with council, or programs and hires that have been criticized.
