RALEIGH, N.C. — The state Senate voted 44-0 Monday to give tentative approval to a bill that will bolster the state's job-recruiting efforts.
House Bill 117 will plow more money into North Carolina's Job Development Investment Grant program, which gives companies a tax break when they invest in new equipment and hire workers. The bill includes a "super-sized" JDIG grant for large manufacturers such as automakers.
