Building Economic Security

America is strongest when opportunity and prosperity are within reach for every American. Last year, congressional Democrats passed the Inflation Reduction Act which made historic investments in combating climate change, reducing inflation, and bolstering economic growth. Under the Biden administration, inflation is decreasing and more Americans are employed than at any time in the last fifty years. Continuing to address rising costs and corporate monopolies must remain a top priority to ensure the economy can work for every American.

By promoting good jobs, strengthening workers' rights, and protecting programs like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, we can help keep the American Dream alive. We need to invest not just in higher education, but also in career and technical education, small businesses, and our social service programs.

As the national security threats we face and the dangers of the climate crisis pile up, we need to take this opportunity to invest in the middle and working classes to create millions of jobs on our shores and foster an economy where everyone plays by the rules and pays their fair share. I will never stop fighting to make sure every American can build a foundation of economic security and prosperity that lets our families and our communities thrive.
