It looks like the most likely version of the Republican Jobs Plan will be Number 15 on this list, H.R. 2072. That is because that's the bill being reported out of committee and placed on the Union Calendar. Remember that President Obama gave his Jobs Speech on September 8th, and that's the same day the GOP got their bill on the Union Calendar. Coincidence? I think not! H.R. 2072 will have only a minor impact on jobs. It is a bill to extend and fund the Import/Export Bank. The theory is if we can ship more product overseas, we will have more jobs here. A good idea, but the GOP needs to come up with more than this drop in the bucket.
Here's the list.
