Time for Justice, Time for Jobs Webinar and Congressional Call-In Day: Dec. 17-18 The presidential administration is urging the House of Representatives to pass a job creation bill before Dec. 22. President Obama has said that transportation infrastructure spending will be a significant part of the bill. Your experience and our studies have shown that the jobs the stimulus produced did not go to the people who need them most – disadvantaged people: low income people, people of color, women and homeless/formerly homeless people. Now is the time to take action to guarantee that any new jobs bill contains strong workforce equity requirements.
