Congressmember Joseph Crowley (D–Queens/The Bronx) addressed the Queens Workforce Development Task Force on Monday at Queens Borough Hall. Crowley gave a talk on the American Jobs Act and led a discussion on how workforce leaders can utilize that legislation to attract and retain jobs from a local perspective.
Under the Jobs Act, Crowley explained, America’s small businesses would receive a tax cut for hiring more workers while rebuilding America. Under the Jobs Act also job opportunities would be developed for Americans seeking them, and tax relief would also be provided for American families.
