A Call to Action on Jobs

AFL-CIO Executive Council statement
Today America is missing 11 million jobs—and millions more workers have either given up looking for jobs or are stuck in part-time work. At the same time, the party on Wall Street continues—producing speculation instead of investment, executive bonuses instead of jobs and sowing the seeds of another financial crisis even as we continue to suffer the consequences of the current one. This is the legacy of the failed deregulatory economic model of the past 30 years and the failed presidency of George W. Bush.
