With thousands of Nevadans looking for work there's no doubt many are celebrating the new tax
legislation signed into law, not just because it means a two-year extension on tax cuts
but it also means a 13-month extension for long-term unemployment benefits. It's a move
economists estimates will save more than 18,000 jobs and 500-million dollars
in the state. And that's not all senator Harry Reid says the tax relief bill
will actually create jobs and boost our middle-class. And here's a look
at those numbers now nearly 1.3 million Nevadans will get the tax cut with
380,000 Nevadans able to deduct state sales taxes this year and
Next. Nearly 200,000 benefiting
from the earned income tax credit. Now as for those jobs made senator Reid says grants from
the treasury department will mean more than 2500 new jobs in the clean
energy industry and the new law also lets small businesses deduct certain investment something
Reid says will allow for growth.
