Rooney Seeks to Expand the Work Opportunity Tax Credit
Rooney and Boccieri Join Together Again on to Introduce Another Job Creation Bill
Washington, D.C. – Today, Congressman Tom Rooney (R-Fla.) and Congressman John Boccieri (D-Ohio) introduced their second bipartisan job creation bill titled the Back to Work Tax Credit Act which encourages employers to create new jobs by hiring the long-term unemployed. The legislation, which builds upon the HIRE America Act introduced earlier this month by Rooney and Boccieri, specifically expands the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) to give employers a tax credit for hiring people who have been collecting unemployment benefits for 26 weeks.
“Getting people back to work is job one for me,” said Rep. Tom Rooney. “Florida’s unemployment rate climbed to a staggering 11% last month. Hendry County has the highest unemployment rate in the state with 16.8% and St. Lucie is ranked third with 15.3%. These are unacceptable numbers that demand action. Finding real solutions requires bipartisan action and that is why I have partnered with my Democratic colleague and fellow freshman Rep. John Boccieri to introduce the ‘Back to Work Tax Credit Act’ to help get people back to work today.”
“With Ohio’s unemployment rate still higher than the national average, the time is now to put Ohioans back to work,” said Congressman Boccieri. “Though we have a long way to go to rebuild our economy, we are headed in the right direction with the Back to Work Tax Credit Act. This legislation is a win-win for employers and employees because it encourages businesses to hire additional workers, especially those who have been unemployed for many months. This legislation helps struggling employers in our district create new jobs, encourages economic growth, and helps Ohioans who want to work get back on their feet. I am proud we can come together not as Democrats or Republicans, but as Americans, to protect our workers, create economic development, and restore the hope and promise of America.”
“Creating jobs on the Treasure Coast is crucial to economic recovery,” said Stuart/Martin County Chamber of Commerce President Joe Catrambone. “Businesses in Martin County need help to grow and expand allowing them to hire additional employees -- expanding the Work Opportunity Tax Credit is great way to encourage business to expand.”
The Back to Work Tax Credit Act helps people who most urgently need to get back to work by expanding the income tax credit to employers who hire the long-term unemployed. The bill expands the income tax credit to 40% of the first $6,000 in wages paid for employers who retain new hires on their payroll for at least 400 hours during the worker’s first year of employment.
Earlier this month, Boccieri and Rooney worked together to introduce the Helping Invigorate and Revive our Economy Act of 2009, also known as the HIRE America Act, to help create jobs for a larger pool of working Americans by expanding the WOTC to encourage employers to hire more employees in general, not just the long-term unemployed.
Currently the Work Opportunity Tax Credit is set to expire on August 31, 2011. The HIRE America Act would make these provisions permanent. For additional information on the current Work Opportunity Tax Credit please click here.

Late last week congressman Tom Rooney introduced the Helping Invigorate and Revive our Economy Act of 2009 (H.R. 3784), also known as the HIRE America Act, with Rep. John Boccieri (D-Ohio). The HIRE America Act will expand the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) to help small businesses and firms hire more employees.
CMS' Brian Kelly wrote "As a small business and a service company whom manages the employment tax credits for hundreds of companies nationwide, this is one of the best ideas and bills I have read. This hits the root of the challenge, putting people back to work and providing small business with the tools to grow their business. Great Job!"
Employers have until Oct. 17 to take advantage of a popular federal tax credit program that has added two new categories of workers – unemployed veterans and disconnected youth – to the list of groups that qualify employers for tax credits.
The Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) is a federal tax credit available to private-for-profit employers who hire from specific targeted groups that have experienced difficulty in securing employment. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act) expanded eligibility to employers who hire workers from the two new targeted groups and employ them during 2009 or 2010.
New York State Responds to Rising Unemployment, Thousands of Dollars in Federal Work Opportunity Tax Credits available.
ROCHESTER, NY (07/16/2009)-- State Labor Commissioner M. Patricia Smith and Empire State Development Chairman & CEO designate Dennis Mullen today outlined a wide range of initiatives administered by the NYS Department of Labor designed to help businesses in the Finger Lakes Region weather the current recession. These include federal Work Opportunity Tax Credits (WOTC) for new hires, training programs and an initiative that helps companies avoid potential layoffs. In the Rochester area, the unemployment rate was 8.4 percent in June 2009, compared with 7.7 percent in May 2009 and 5.3 percent in June 2008 (not seasonally adjusted).
"As Governor Paterson often says, we are a state rich with resources, the most impressive of which is our human capital," said Commissioner Smith. "We need to invest in that capital here in the Finger Lakes Region, and let it grow. That is the ultimate goal of these initiatives, funded in part by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act."
"With unemployment steadily rising, it becomes increasingly important to support workforce and business development initiatives across New York State," said Dennis M. Mullen, Chairman & CEO designate, Empire State Development. "ESD provides many services and programs to businesses that are designed to strengthen a business' competitiveness and to ensure our State's workforce remains one of the most productive and diverse in the country. During these challenging economic times, we will work to fully utilize the competitive resources already available to New York that set us apart from other states, such as access to water and an international border and a highly educated workforce."
Businesses in the Finger Lakes Region that are hiring are encouraged to take advantage of federal Work Opportunity Tax Credits (WOTC) administered by the Department of Labor. These credits, which can amount to thousands of dollars for each new hire, are available for any business that hires WOTC-eligible individuals, including: long-term Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) recipients; TANF recipients; veterans (eligibility criteria for veterans has expanded under the federal stimulus package); ex-felons; summer youth (eligibility criteria for youth has expanded under the federal stimulus package); vocational rehabilitation referrals; 18 to 39 year-old food stamp recipients; Supplemental Security Income Recipients; and individuals living in designated zones across the state. Businesses in the Finger Lakes Region interested in WOTC should call 1-888-4-NYSDOL. The State officials also encouraged Finger Lakes Region businesses to tap into the Labor Department's Building Skills in New York State (BUSINYS) program and upgrade the skills of their incumbent workers. Under this $5 million training program, funded in part by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, businesses with four or more workers are eligible to apply for up to $50,000 in worker training funds from the Department of Labor.
The purpose of the BUSINYS initiative is to ensure that the skills of workers do not deteriorate or become "stale" in an ever-more competitive and technologically complex global economy. Once awards are made to businesses in the Finger Lakes Region, incumbent workers will be trained in specific occupational skills needed by that business or industry. Eventually, this can lead to potential career growth and increased wages.
In order to be considered for an award, an applicant must:
• Be a private sector, for-profit, or not-for-profit business, and have four or more employees; or a consortium of two or more such businesses that have the same training needs.
• Be headquartered or have at least one physical location in New York State at the time the proposal is submitted. (Funds awarded to applicants must be expended on employees working at the applicant's New York State facilities.)
• Have contacted their local workforce investment area.
In addition:
• The position(s) targeted for training must exist and be filled at the time the proposal is submitted.
• The applicant must demonstrate that the training will result in the workers' acquisition of transferable occupational skills. Businesses have until July 20, 2009 to apply for the BUSINYS training program. There is no minimum award amount. Contracts will be awarded for a period of up to six months. For more information or to download an application, visit the Labor Department's homepage at www.labor.ny.gov.
Officials also called upon businesses in the region that are considering laying off workers to look into the Labor Department's Shared Work Program. Shared Work provides employers an alternative to layoffs as they face a temporary decline in business. Rather than lay off a percentage of workers to cut costs, an employer can use this program to reduce the hours of all or a particular group of employees. In turn, employees can receive partial unemployment insurance benefits to compensate for their lost wages. Under the Shared Work program, participating employees do not see a reduction in their health insurance, retirement, vacation pay, or other fringe benefits.In 2008, there were 67 companies and 2,947 workers in the Shared Work program in the Finger Lakes Region. Statewide, 462 companies and 14,775 workers participated in the program during that year. From January through May 2009, there were 231 companies and 6,702 workers participating in the Shared Work program in the Finger Lakes Region. During this same time period, 1,317 companies and 31,446 workers participated in the program statewide. Businesses interested in applying for the Shared Work program can call (518) 457-5807.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – A record 32.2 million people -- one in every 10 Americans -- received food stamps at latest count, the government said on Thursday, a reflection of the recession now in its 16th month.
Food stamps are the major U.S. antihunger program and help poor people buy groceries. The average benefit was $112.82 per person in January.
The January figure marks the third time in five months that enrollment set a record.
"A weakened economy means that many more individuals are turning to SNAP/Food Stamps," said the Food Research and Action Center, an antihunger group, using the acronym for the renamed food stamp program, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.
The U.S. unemployment rate was 8.1 percent in February, the highest in 25 years. Weekly claims for jobless benefits totaled 669,000 last week, the highest in 26 years, the government said on Thursday.
Food stamp enrollment rose in all but four of the 50 states during January, said Agriculture Department figures. Vermont, Alaska and South Dakota had increases of more than 5 percent. Texas had the largest enrollment, 2.984 million, down 65,000, followed by California at 2.545 million, up 43,000, and New York with 2.211 million, up 37,000.
Food stamp benefits get a temporary 13 percent increase, beginning with this month, under the economic stimulus law signed by President Barack Obama. The increase equals $80 a month for a household of four.
