The Stimulus Has Failed Nevada

Posted by: Staff in Growing The Economy on Print 

Congressman Heller discussed how the so-called stimulus bill failed Nevada yesterday on the floor of the House of Representatives:

"Despite the promises from this administration that the stimulus bill would cap unemployment at 8%, we are seeing across this nation numbers much higher than that. We continue to see Nevada unemployment grow from 10%, 11%, 12% and now 14.2%. The stimulus was supposed to be an immediate jolt. Clearly, it didn't happen."

More from the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

I have been saying all along that the stimulus bill was a farce. Many of us know all too well that this did not work! I appreciate your voice on this issue!
