Despite a historically long recovery, the U.S. economy continues to face significant, long-term challenges. Many workers find themselves lacking the requisite skills and training to thrive in the modern economy. Most low- and middle-income workers have not seen meaningful increases in their wages, and many have fallen out of the workforce altogether. Geographic disparities in economic opportunity have become more pronounced: prosperity is increasingly concentrated in certain regions and cities, while other communities, particularly those in rural areas, have fallen further behind. Taken together, these challenges, though vexing and deep-rooted, are not insurmountable.
As the 116th congress begins, lawmakers have ample opportunities to come together to advance bipartisan solutions to these challenges. At this event, the Aspen Economic Strategy Group, co-chaired by Henry Paulson Jr. and Erskine Bowles, will highlight some of these opportunities by releasing a series of policy proposals that aim to expand economic opportunity for more Americans.
