Jobs for America Now
The current jobs crisis is not just an economic crisis, but a moral one as well. To address this emergency, a sweeping coalition of over 60 national organizations has come together to form Jobs for America Now. As part of the coalition’s efforts to spur job creation and put America back to work, USAction supports a five-pronged approach to creating jobs in the short-term and ending the unemployment crisis.

Quality Education
Access to quality education, from cradle to college
USAction believes that education must be a key long-term investment to guarantee lasting, sustainable
economic growth. America needs to support early childhood education programs, improve the quality of
public schools and make college education accessible, so that all kids have a real opportunity to
achieve the American Dream.
A Clean Energy Economy
21st Century Jobs, Sustainable Living
We must take advantage of the incredible and unique opportunity before us today. By investing in a
clean energy economy, we can produce innovative new technologies, create millions of new jobs and
generate billions in public revenue while at the same time becoming energy independent and effectively
tackling the climate change crisis.
21st Century Infrastructure
A physical and digital upgrade
Instead of deferring critical infrastructure projects to future generations, we must take on the
responsibility of strengthening our nation's infrastructure in a way that is both fiscally responsible
and economically viable. Investments in 21st century infrastructure wil effectively stimulate our
economy will shifting our transportation philosophy, placing more attention toward expanding public
transportation and building a high speed rail system to connect our nation's vibrant cities. We must
also make broadband more accessible for the millions of low income and rural Americans still waiting
to join the information and communications revolution.
