What's the next step in the Jobs program?
Has a plan been submitted by Obama? When it's received, can they vote on it as is, or do they have to do "Congress-y" stuff to it?

Is there a timeline?

Thanks!

1. They could vote on it as it is, but, being Congress, they won't.
It was submitted as a complete bill, and will be introduced by a Democrat. From there, it will be dealt with in some way. We probably won't like the way.

2. Thank you -- I was unaware that it was submitted as a
complete bill (he's doing their job for them! :7). Now I understand why he kept saying "Pass This Bill". It IS a bill and (in theory) they could!

I don't have a good feeling about this, either.

Thanks for clearing it up for me. :hi:
