The Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act included tax credits on qualifying bonds.

Also included in the Hire Act were provisions creating incentives for hiring unemployed workers.

Notes: 

Maximum amount reflects the lost revenue from the tax provisions over a 10-year period. Deficit impact reflects the total net cost of the provision in proportion to the total net cost of -$1.1 billion for the bill. Offsets totaled $16.7 billion, stemming largely from foreign account tax compliance and a delay in implementing worldwide interest expense allocation until 2020.

Amount spent unknown.
