Dear John, What does it take to Create an Economy that Works for All? The American Sustainable Business Council, representing more than 200,000 businesses committed to the triple bottom line of people, planet and profits, has led a broad stakeholder initiative to develop a roadmap for a just and sustainable economy. Representatives of the initiative will present public policy priorities required to Create an Economy that Works for All in a webinar today at 1 PM EST, during the Democratic National Convention. Contributors of the working group have highlighted the potency of capitalism as a dynamic force, however, challenges such as income inequality, crumbling infrastructure, market consolidation, climate change, underinvestment, and the financialization of America’s economy pose serious threats to our continued global leadership and social stability. Many across the country view our current capitalist system as rigged and not working for them. Speakers will present on key issues and public policy priorities including race and equity, corporate governance, high road business, healthcare, environment and the broad theme of re-imagining capitalism, all a part of the forthcoming "Creating an Economic System that Works for All” report Sign up here to receive the report upon release.
