A job that provides good wages, strong benefits, union protections & safe
working conditions should be a legal right in America.

Individuals and families deserve true economic justice, and that’s why
Ayanna just filed a historic resolution calling for a federal job
guarantee.

The idea that all people should have a right to employment that ensures a
dignified standard of living has deep roots in American history.
Championed by Sadie Alexander, America’s first Black economist, a job
guarantee was a core demand of the civil rights movement, in pursuit of
both racial and economic justice.

full power of our movement to get it passed.

A federal job guarantee would provide every person with an enforceable
legal right to a quality job — with a living wage and critical benefits —
to support projects that meet long-neglected community, physical and human
infrastructure needs, such as delivering quality care for children and
seniors, building and sustaining 21st-century transit systems,
strengthening neighborhoods, and protecting the environment.

Funded by the federal government and implemented locally in deep
partnership with communities, the program would provide a pathway to
stable employment and begin to close the gaping income and wealth gap for
Black, Latinx, and Indigenous workers.

By ensuring everyone — including people with disabilities, transgender
people, caregivers, and people with criminal records or involvement with
the criminal legal system — has access to a good job with dignified wages,
safe working conditions, health care and other benefits — including full
worker rights and union protections — a federal job guarantee would
address the current jobs crisis while laying the foundation for an
equitable economic recovery.

By hiring workers in the midst of a downturn, a permanent job guarantee
would operate as an automatic stabilizer, maintaining consumer spending
and protecting us from prolonged recessions and jobless recoveries.

to build an equitable, resilient and sustainable economy that delivers
prosperity to all. Add your name now to show your support for Ayanna’s
historic resolution to create a legal right to a job in our country.

Thank you so much for your support. Together we will achieve economic,
racial, and social justice for all of our communities.

In solidarity,

The A-Team
