Shomari C. Figures\u2019 (AL-02) and Jeff Hurd\u2019s (CO-23) bipartisan Made in America Jobs Act of 2026 which would grant eligibility to projects that help relocate foreign jobs to the United States.\n\n\u201cThis is a commonsense, bipartisan bill that incentivizes companies and corporations to bring jobs back to America,\u201d said Figures. \u201cI\u2019m proud of this bipartisan push to give communities, especially rural areas in Alabama\u2019s 2nd District, more economic opportunities.\u201d\n\nIn 2024, Congress reauthorized the U.S. Economic Development Administration (EDA) for the first time since 2004. This reauthorization made significant changes to EDA by giving the agency the tools and resources it needs to support local economic growth and success in the global economy.\n\nThe Made in America Jobs Act builds on this progress by expanding grant eligibility to projects that will relocate jobs from overseas back to the United States.\n\n\u201cCommunities across Colorado\u2019s Third District understand the importance of building things here at home,\u201d said Hurd. \u201cThe Made in America Jobs Act is about giving local leaders the tools they need to compete, attract investment, and create jobs in their own communities. This is a practical step toward strengthening our domestic supply chains and supporting long-term economic growth, particularly in rural America. With the passage of this bill in the House, we are moving forward with a solution that prioritizes economic opportunity, strengthens American industry, and supports communities across the country.\u201d", 1, "2026-06-09T06:27:37Z", "2026-06-09T06:30:10Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://figures.house.gov/media/press-releases/house-passes-figures-bipartisan-made-america-jobs-act-increase-domestic-jobs"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.6663200911134481, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
