The bill (the Creating American Jobs and Ending Offshoring Act) would have:
1) ended tax deductions for expenses incurred when companies shutter U.S. operations and shift the work abroad;
2) imposed a new tax on products once made in the United States but now manufactured by foreign workers; and
3) offered employers a two-year payroll tax holiday on jobs repatriated from overseas.
The bill failed to garner the 60 votes needed to overcome a Republican filibuster. Outsourcing of jobs continues.
