ENDORSE THE PLAN
WHY?
As our finance industry continues its descent and the economic crisis deepens, Americans are feeling the pain. Working families face the loss of jobs, homes, and health care. Students are finding it harder to pay for college and college graduates are struggling to find jobs. Our military is stretched thin and our planet is in peril. But there are no quick fixes to the challenges that confront our country. Tough times call for robust solutions.
They call for a Next New Deal.
WHAT?
USAction/TrueMajority.org has laid out a plan called Invest in America's Future. This is our Next New Deal:
- Stabilizes our financial institutions
- Guarantees quality, affordable health care for everyone
- Grants all children access to high quality education from early childhood through college
- Develops a clean energy economy and independence from fossil fuels and oil.
- Strengthens our nation's infrastructure
- Tackles poverty
