We need policy solutions to address the economic devastation across the country and to make sure these solutions are equitable.

Pamela, The pandemic has sent a shock wave through our economy. In 26 states, more than 1 in 5 households were behind on rent in July. The rate of food insecurity in households with children doubled this year. Because of the racial gaps in wealth and inequitable policies, Black and brown families are suffering the most from job and wage loss during the pandemic. We need policy solutions to address the economic devastation across the country and to make sure these solutions are equitable. The Center for Economic and Policy Research has given a platform to economists like Dean Baker, who have built a roadmap for how to use public policy to create an economy that works for everyone. Now, you can support them without opening your wallet! Every month, our good friends at CREDO give away $150,000 to worthy organizations, and they allocate that based on a public vote.
