BlueGreen Alliance Outlines Jobs21! Agenda
The BlueGreen Alliance sent a letter to President Obama outlining the Jobs21! Blueprint to Solve the Jobs Crisis, and requesting that strong, forward-looking, job-creating clean energy policies be incorporated into his jobs proposal.
Jobs21! is a nationwide jobs plan — a set of policies and investments that can create jobs, cut energy and transportation costs, create stability for business and make the country more competitive and more secure by reducing our dependence on foreign oil while also having vital public health standards move forward.
Through Jobs21!, we have outlined how moving America to a cleaner, healthier economy will mean more jobs and prosperity for our workers and communities. We will be taking this message across the country to workers, environmentalists …to all Americans. Achieving this goal is by no means a small endeavor, but this big vision should reap big dividends. We ask that you put forward an ambitious agenda that mirrors the goals and principles of Jobs21! and maximizes job creation and renewable energy integration while promoting the health of communities across the country.
