Congressman Tom Reed today outlined four broad areas of policy focus for 2012: job creation, overhauling the tax code, energy policy and reducing the annual budget deficit. “Jobs are the number one issue we hear about as we travel the district,” Reed said. “The most important thing we can do is continue our work of getting government out of the way so that we can re-employ people.” An additional area of focus for Reed, a member of the Committee on Ways and Means, is streamlining and overhauling the tax code. “The tax code is 70,000 pages long,” he ...

Reed, Sanchez Introduce LEAP Act Congressman Tom Reed (R-NY) and Congresswoman Linda Sanchez (D-CA) are set to re-introduce the Leveraging and Energizing America’s Apprentice Programs, or LEAP Act. The bill is designed to increase apprenticeships through a new federal tax credit for employers. “We must work to help individuals get the training they need for the jobs of today and tomorrow. This tax credit will serve to increase apprenticeships and get people the skills they need for good-paying jobs,” Reed stated. Currently, there are 9 million unemployed Americans, yet 5 million jobs remain unfilled as many companies struggle to find qualified workers to fill available jobs. Expanding apprenticeships is a common sense solution to enhance employment opportunities in in-demand career fields such as manufacturing, healthcare, information technology, and skilled trades. “I'm pleased to once again introduce the LEAP Act with Rep. Tom Reed. For many years, we have worked to pass this legislation which |
Reed, Kind Introduce Bipartisan Bill to Lower Cost of Alternative Energy Options for Farmers U.S. Rep. Tom Reed (R-NY) and U.S. Rep. Ron Kind (D-WI) introduced the bipartisan Agricultural Environmental Stewardship Act, which provides tax incentives for farmers and rural electric cooperatives to invest in biogas and nutrient recovery technology. “We must help our dairy farmers find a cost effective way to use processes that are environmentally friendly. This tax credit will make these new technologies more affordable and the use of such methods will benefit our communities,” said Congressman Reed.“Wisconsin’s agriculture industry, responsible for $88.3 billion in economic activity and 413,500 jobs, is critical to the increasing job creation and growing the local economy. By making it more affordable for Wisconsin farmers to pursue biogas technology we make sure they have more resources to create jobs and protect our natural resources for future generations,” said Congressman Kind. “By creating incentives to make biogas and manure resource recovery technologi |

In these increasingly polarized and toxic political times, it’s more important than ever that Members come together across the aisle in the spirit of unity and cooperation. As Co-Chairs of the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus, we know the transformative power of inter-party collaboration. Our Caucus, comprised of twenty Democrats and twenty Republicans, intends to continue our bipartisan leadership. We invite all of our colleagues to join us in looking for ways to work together constructively, recognizing that there is far more that unites us as Americans than divides us as Democrats and Re |
