Jobs & Economy
Strengthening the economy of Georgia’s Second Congressional District and the nation is my top priority in Congress.
Throughout my tenure in the United States House of Representatives, I have fought to eliminate barriers that hamper job creation, to provide tax relief for working families, to eliminate the estate tax, and to bolster the small business sector. I have strongly supported legislation to help unemployed workers struggling to find jobs. Putting the economy on the right track requires the rebuilding of our nation’s infrastructure and tax incentives to spur investments in small businesses; we must encourage small business lending while reducing regulations to help entrepreneurs access capital. I support extending the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts.
