Disappointing Map of the American Jobs Act

The American Jobs Act is a big proposal that can be hard to visualize, so we wanted to put together a new tool to help show the impact.

The result is this map, which sadly makes it very hard to see any patterns or compare state to state. To do that sort of analysis you can download the raw data. This smacks to me of, "we have boring data, let's make it sexy by putting it on a map." This is a place a map does not really help.
