The document discusses a campaign by the Italian trade union Filcams Cgil called #JobArt: culture brings growth. The campaign aims to promote tourism and culture as engines of economic growth in Italy by advocating for increased investment and job creation in these sectors. Italy has many cultural sites but tourism has declined in recent years. Through public discussions and proposals to the government, Filcams Cgil wants to emphasize that investing in culture can help solve Italy's economic crisis by creating more jobs and wealth through tourism.

2. JOBS Act (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
The jumpstart our business startups act or JOBS act, is a law
intended to encourage funding of united states small businesses
by easing various securities regulations. It passed with bipartisan
support, and was signed into law by president Barack Obama on
April 5, 2012.
In Italy, the Renzi government used the English term to create a
law that worsens working conditions for workers.
Filcams has made use of it as well, modifying it in JobArt, to
launch a campaign for better jobs in tourism and culture.
