4、 flagship publication, Cyberstates, previouslypublished by AeA, which examines the size and scope of the high-technology industry in terms of jobs, wages,and other factors nationally and in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico.Despite the recent economic downturn, the high-tech i

5、ndustry added jobs to the U.S. economy for the fourthconsecutive year. The tech industry added 77,000 net jobs in 2008, for a total of 5.9 million workers. This ison top of job gains of 79,600 in 2007, 139,000 in 2006, and 87,400 in 2005.2008 was the fifth straight year of employment gains in the te

Thedownside is that high-tech manufacturing shed 23,100 jobs and communications services shed 12,700 jobs.Cyberstates 2009 relies on data from the U.S.

7、Bureau of Labor Statistics. The report provides 2008national data on tech employment as well as 2007 national and state-by-state data on high-tech employment,wages, establishments, payroll, wage differential, and employment concentration. All data are the most recentavailable at the time of publicat

The largest gains occurred in Texas (+14,700),Georgia (+13,100), Washington (+11,300), North Carolina (+5,500), and Virginia (+5,300). On apercentage basis, Kansas saw the fastest job growth in 2007 at 8.1 percent.Virginia led the natio

9、n with the highest concentration of tech workers - 92 of every 1,000 private sector workers inthe state were employed in the tech industry. Virginia was followed by Massachusetts and Colorado.The high-tech industry employs highly educated workers and pays them well - 88 percent more than theaverage

10、private sector wage nationwide. Forty-eight cyberstates had wage differentials higher than 50 percentand five cyberstates had differentials higher than 100 percent.Although the U.S. high-tech industry continued to add jobs in 2008, future growth is clearly jeopardized as aresult of the current econo

11、mic downturn and the volatility of global financial markets. Our industry has weatheredthe storm longer than most, but recent announcements of job cuts at technology companies suggest that a fifthstraight year of growth is - at best - questionable.TechAmerica believes the bright spot in these hard t

In crafting this bill, Congress and the Obama Administrationinvested heavily in new technologies to improve our infrastructure, modernize our education and healthcaresystems, and build a more energy eff
