In an effort to enhance job opportunities for Pennsylvanians, House members have introduced a package of bills aimed at creating more family sustaining jobs and improving the state’s business climate, according to State Rep. Jim Cox (R-129).
Some of the bills would:
• Allow unemployed Pennsylvanians to apply to work for a participating business to garner critical on-the-job training while continuing to collect unemployment for a temporary period.
•Provide regulatory flexibility for small businesses and improve state rulemaking by creating procedures to analyze the availability of more flexible regulatory approaches for small businesses.
• Continue lawsuit abuse reforms to end frivolous lawsuits and reduce the cost of doing business in Pennsylvania.
