I will link to the actual bill when I find a link to it but until then we have the news of the GOP unveiling the "Jobs Through Growth Act" and videos. (Summary Text and Link added here)
From the press release:
U.S. Senators John McCain (R-AZ), Rand Paul (R-KY) and other Republican senators will hold a press conference to introduce a Republican alternative jobs bill, the Jobs Through Growth Act, today, Thursday, October 13, 2011 at 2:00 p.m. ET in the Senate Radio/TV Gallery. The Jobs Through Growth Act reforms the tax code, cuts spending and reigns in overregulation to help foster an environment in which the private sector can grow, invest and create jobs in America again.
