Clinton, Adding to Jobs Agenda, Proposes New Tax Incentives to Revitalize U.S. Manufacturing
By NH Labor News | December 8, 2015 | Press Release, Sec Hillary Clinton



hillary clinton (WisPolitics.com FLIKR)

As part of her plan to create good-paying jobs for American workers, Hillary Clinton is outlining a strategy to win the race to lead the world in advanced manufacturing. The centerpiece of her announcement is a major new tax credit – dubbed the “Manufacturing Renaissance Tax Credit” – to incentivize investment in communities that are at risk of a downward spiral because they have seen manufacturing jobs and production depart.

..................

Clinton is focused on manufacturing because it is a source of higher-paying American jobs, with studies showing it pays between 8 and 20 percent higher than other industries.

Under Clinton’s manufacturing agenda, communities would be eligible to apply for tax relief after a significant plant closure or round of layoffs in their area. Clinton’s new tax credit would offer options for relief modeled after the existing New Markets Tax Credit, which one survey found, on average, has supported projects worth $16 million. They could also be eligible for relief for long-term investments, or refurbishing and repurposing facilities.
......................

Clinton’s agenda extends her long record of fighting to expand manufacturing and boost American jobs. As Senator, Clinton co-founded the bipartisan Senate Manufacturing Caucus, fought Bush Administration efforts to cut support for manufacturing, and called for a “New Manhattan Project” to rebuild American manufacturing.

A fact sheet on Clinton’s manufacturing proposals is available here.

1. Oh goody More gifts to corporations.

It's worked so well for the 99% in the past!

Let's repeat the same old fuckups again!

Maybe the outcome will be different this time.

[JaneyVee]

2. Yeah, we wouldn't want manufacturing to stay or start up in America.

[JaneyVee]

12. You're the one who tried to smear Huma Abedin, no?

Btw, trade supports millions of US jobs and contributes to GDP. We can give manufacturing tax incentives because that's how they pay employees, while at the same time raising tax rates for CEOs because that's how they pay themselves.

[Dawgs]

3. Sounds like something the Republicans would love.

More gifts to businesses is exactly what our economy needs.

4. Nice. It is being disiminated.

5. Yay! More Republican solutions to Republican problems!

modeled after the existing New Markets Tax Credit, which one survey found, on average, has supported projects worth $16 million.

Hrm...replace billions with a tax credit worth millions. That's TOTALLY going to make up for the loss.

As Senator, Clinton co-founded the bipartisan Senate Manufacturing Caucus

Which has done nothing

fought Bush Administration efforts to cut support for manufacturing

And failed

and called for a “New Manhattan Project” to rebuild American manufacturing.

Which didn't happen.

Tell me again how Clinton is super-effective at "getting things done".

11. She claims the problem is the TPP doesn't stop currency manipulation

But that was never in the TPP, and never going to be in the TPP. That decision was made while she was SoS, so suddenly finding this to be a problem is a bit disingenuous.

[JaneyVee]

13. And she passed the same number of bills in 8 years that Bernie did in 25 years.

[jeff47]

15. Nope. And you've been corrected on this at least a dozen times now.

But keep catapulting the propaganda!!

[JaneyVee]

16. Which ones am I missing?

S.893 - The Veteran's Compensation Cost of Living Adjustment Act of 2013

S.885 - A Bill to Designate the Facility of the United States Postal Service Located At 1 Marble Street in Fair Haven, Vermont, as the "Matthew Lyon Post Office Building"

H.R. 5245 - "To Designate the Facility of the United States Postal Service Located At 1 Marble Street in Fair Haven, Vermont, as the "Matthew Lyon Post Office Building"

[jeff47]

17. You've been corrected dozens of times. Why on earth should I bother?

I'd provide you a list, you'll disappear from this thread, and then you'll go back to the same lie in another thread. You've already done it to me three times, and done it to several other posters.

Did you think we were too stupid to notice the pattern?

6. ...

7. This is why it is so difficult to post in "Primaries"

I do not hate Hillary Clinton, she isn't important enough to me to waste my hate. But, every day I find more and more reasons she is not who we need in the Office of President.
When she makes statements/proposals like this, I am very tempted to respond in anger.

If tax incentives worked; then we would have wide open national borders to get enough workers to fill the employments slots caused by forty years of tax incentives.

To see someone who I know is not a fool applying for a job while spouting such nonsense; to be tanking her second interview so horrendously, is infuriating.
To have people I know as good people by nearly every other post from them I have read, not point out the manure that is stepped in other than to gush over the fine texture and glossy finish of that manure, drives me up the wall.

[JaneyVee]

14. Difference is...

Republicans give tax "incentives" to business, but they also give tax cuts to CEOs and the rich. Then they double down with giving tax cuts and loopholes for businesses that ship overseas.

Hillary will give tax incentives for keeping jobs here while raising personal taxes on the rich and end tax breaks for outsourcers. That's the smart approach. Demonizing business at every level like Sanders does will not create jobs.

8. the Governor of Washington gave Boeing a 9 Billion $ tax cut to keep jobs in Wash.

They are still trying to figure out how to pay for that, the only thing they have come up with in a 10 cent gas tax. Which would hurt the poor and middle class most. Meanwhile Boeing is still shipping jobs out of the state.
