Expanding Economic Opportunity for More Americans: Bipartisan Policies to Increase Work, Wages, and Skills

On February 4, 2019, educators, policymakers, public administrators, and program officials will present research at the Aspen Institute in Washington, D.C. on bipartisan opportunities to improve economic conditions for low- and middle-income workers. They will highlight challenges to accessing opportunity, discuss solutions such as education, and explore the role of state and local government in alleviating economic hardship for more Americans. A series of policy proposals focusing on across-the-aisle discussions and resolutions will concurrently be released at this event.
