Creating the Economy of our Future
A Community Conversation
Join Working Families Win and New Hampshire's Citizen's Alliance towards building an economy of full employment and livable wages for New Hampshire workers

We are at an economic crossroad in the United States. Families in New Hampshire and across the nation are facing unemployment, additional layoffs, few job openings, at the same time unemployment benefits and cobra extensions are running out.
We will discuss the values and principals of a progressive job recovery and focus on proposals for creating jobs that have living wages, reduce energy waste and pollution, and focus on fair trade. Additional topics to be discussed include: Extending the lifeline to jobless workers, rebuilding America's schools, roads and energy systems, increasing aid to state and local governments to maintain vital services and jobs, and creating a climate where banks will begin lending to small and medium businesses so they can create local jobs.
