Gov. Brown relents amid criticism—proposes making it easier to track funding for needy kids

What new jobs? California program to entice hiring falls short

Four years after Gov. Jerry Brown launched his signature program to boost California jobs by awarding tax credits to the businesses that create them, businesses have left two thirds of those available credits unclaimed—a sign that most expected jobs have yet to materialize.

State offices responsible for awarding and monitoring the California Competes tax credits say they aren’t keeping count.
