“Today’s jobs report clearly shows we need to do more to help people get back to work.  With the unemployment rate at 10.2 percent, the highest since the early 1980s, Congress should consider a range of job creation policies including a jobs tax credit bill I plan to introduce.  While a jobs tax credit wouldn’t fix all the challenges businesses face, it would be an effective tool in helping some firms hire more workers.  Job creation must be a top priority for Congress and I will continue to look for ways to help get Americans back to work.”
