The JOBS Act
Posted by Randy | March 29, 2012

This week, the House of Representatives approved – with my support – the Senate amendment to the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act. (You can read about the House-passed version here). The JOBS Act is a bipartisan bill that will help remove barriers to job growth, jumpstart business startups and create jobs. The measure passed 380-41 and is headed to the White House for President Obama’s signature.

The path to economic growth is empowering America's businesses to prosper so they can, in turn, create jobs for Americans. The passage of the JOBS Act is an important step towards this goal, but there is much more that can and should be done.

Here's a list of House-passed bipartisan bills that are awaiting action from the Senate.

    It's happening again congressman Forbes. You are delaying voters comments for days in order to suppress public opinion in spite of painting a picture of wanting feedback and engagement. I have noticed this pattern getting much worse over time. I believe it is deliberate because you have been pressured by the constituency to comment or provide more accountability for the way you are representing us. I would urge you to please improve upon maintenance of this forum. I do not believe we sent you to Washington so you could become disengaged with the public who sent you there. This is outrageous sir!
