Today’s Economic Democracy Weekly examines different ways that movements can build economic power. An Economy Remix article highlights how housing justice leaders are adjusting strategy following the demise of federal legislation—the so-called “Build Back Better” bill—that would have provided $150 billion in affordable housing funding. Next, NPQ’s Rithika Ramamurthy looks at why building worker power requires a well-funded federal labor agency. We also feature an article that looks at housing justice at the local level, with a deep case study of tenant organizing in Baltimore. Lastly, we feature a webinar clip that delves into how, using a coaching approach, managers empower workers at the firm level in worker cooperatives.
