An Eastern Wisconsin Congressman has introduced a bill he says will restore key pro-manufacturing provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
Rep. Glenn Grothman has joined forces with Senator Ted Cruz of Texas to announce the CREATE JOBS Act, which would reinstate and make permanent two expired TCJA provisions that were vital in driving manufacturing growth and attracting investment back to the U.S.
Grothman said in the announcement that “Wisconsin’s Sixth District is the most manufacturing intensive district in the country,” and that “The bottom line is we must make these provisions permanent to support our manufacturers, restore what we know works, and expand policies that strengthen our economy and create jobs across the nation.”
The measure has support from Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce, and was previously introduced by Sen. Cruz in 2020, 2021, and 2023.
