Bachmann releases jobs plan

With a New Hampshire debate focused on the economy coming up this evening, Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann's presidential campaign has put out what it calls a "Blueprint for Economic Prosperity and Job Creation."

Bachmann's "American Jobs, Right Now" plan is basically a rehash of proposals she's been making for months on the campaign trial.

Bachmann calls her plan "simple." Among other things she would give U.S. companies tax breaks for repatriating profits earned outside of the country. She would also cut government spending, taxes and regulations and overturn the President Obama's health care overhaul.
