Yesterday, Vice President Biden held a Middle Class Task Force roundtable with small business employers and employees who are participating in highly successful jobs programs around the country. These state programs, funded through part of the Recovery Act, give employers a strong incentive to hire by paying for part of a new employee’s wages. These jobs programs are now up and running in 31 different states, and according to the most recent study, the programs will have placed 186,000 workers in jobs by the end of September.
