Economy
One of my top priorities is ensuring that Pennsylvania's economy remains strong and continues to grow. I have worked hard to enact meaningful tax relief that has stimulated economic recovery and created an atmosphere of opportunity and personal ownership for hard-working Pennsylvania families. In October 2004 Congress sent the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 to President Bush for his signature; this legislation will boost the nation's economy and create job opportunities for all Americans. Not only have I supported measures that are beneficial to manufacturers and small businesses in Pennsylvania, I have voted for legislation that will make the United States more competitive in the global market. I have also secured federal funding for economic development projects throughout the Commonwealth, which encourage small business growth and increase economic investment in our state. In addition, I have supported job-training programs and educational initiatives to ensure that Pennsylvania's employees are prepared for the challenges of our evolving economy. Pennsylvanians work hard to provide for their families and make the Commonwealth a vital and competitive contributor to our national economies. I will continue to work to pass legislation that promotes economic growth and creates job opportunities for Pennsylvanians and Americans across the country.
