Upcoming Webinar: 
A National Call to Action: The Job Guarantee Now! Campaign

Co-hosted by PolicyLink, the National Jobs for All Network, and the Modern Money Network

Friday, November 8, 2019
11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. PT / 1:00 - 2:00 p.m. ET

 

Amid rising inequality and an uncertain future when it comes to good jobs, it is time for bold, transformative strategies to achieve economic security and dignity for all — including a Federal Job Guarantee. By ensuring that every person who wants to work can have a living-wage job, a job guarantee would eliminate involuntary unemployment, reduce racial inequities, decrease poverty, and raise the floor on low-wage work while building stronger and greener communities. Polling shows widespread public support for a job guarantee, and with the 2020 election at hand, now is a critical moment for racial and economic justice advocates to come together and make a loud and clear demand by signing the Jobs for All manifesto.

Please join this webinar to: 1) learn why a federal job guarantee is a cornerstone of an inclusive, thriving, and sustainable 21st century economy; 2) ask job guarantee experts your questions; and 3) find out how you can participate in the Job Guarantee Now! campaign.

Speakers include: 
  • Dr. Darrick Hamilton, Executive Director, Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity and Professor, John Glenn College of Public Affairs, The Ohio State University
  • Dr. Philip Harvey, Professor of Law, Rutgers School of Law-Camden 
  • Dr. Pavlina Tcherneva, Associate Professor of Economics at Bard College and Research Scholar at the Levy Economics Institute, NY 
  • Angela Glover Blackwell, Founder-in-Residence, PolicyLink (Moderator)
