Neither Congress nor the Obama and now Trump administrations have made any great strides in efforts to jump the economy in this area. Of course, this is likely because neo-liberal tendencies are to take a more free market economic approach and so they don't want to play in that sandbox too much.
I think the biggest factor that's dragging on the economy is wage growth for hourly workers still being too low. The economy is only going to explode if the working class can actually spend money and not have to keep borrowing just to stay afloat.
