With Democrats crying for a jobs bill they can bring to voters before the November elections, it looks like President Obama may be about to propose a new version of a jobs tax credit. We’ll take a close look at the proposal once it is released, but in case you want to learn more about the issue, take a look at some past TaxVox posts here and here. I am skeptical about the credit, but had a good debate with Tim Bartik and John Bishop, who are strong supporters of the idea. Don't forget to check out their comments.
