Esri Maps The Potential Impact of The Jobs Act

An interesting map resource from Esri depicts the potential impacts of the Jobs Act seen on a map of the USA

From the resource: The Obama Administration’s American Jobs Act calls for some $250 billion in tax cuts as well as nearly $200 billion in funding for unemployment benefits, aid to states, and public works projects. The administration predicts that the bill would result in nearly 1.9 million jobs. Explore this map to see White House projections of benefits to states in jobs, infrastructure,education, and tax cuts.

The WMS shows off a number of interesting variables and maps the results by State. Items shown on the map include:

• firms helped by tax cuts
• highway infrastructure funding
• school infrastructure jobs
• and much more
