House Bill
Fully Funded by Unused TARP Funds
House Speaker
Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) announced yesterday the details of the jobs bill
President Obama has been pushing over the past two weeks.
However, two of the President's priorities were not included in the
House version: energy-efficiency upgrades for homes and small
business tax credits to hire new employees.
The House will likely vote on the bill before it attempts to leave on
December 18th. Senate consideration and passage is less certain
with the ongoing appropriations and health care reform debates that
need to occur prior to the Senate's adjournment for the Christmas
holiday.
