Jobs Act Could Bring Millions to Idaho

(IDAHO FALLS) – President Barack Obama’s “American Jobs Act” could pump millions of dollars into Idaho’s economy. KIDK reports that about $315 million would go toward construction projects in the Gem State, providing an estimated 3,700 local jobs. Opponents argue that Obama’s second stimulus package lacks long-term solutions. Under the plan, more than $100 million would go toward improvements for Idaho’s public schools.
