The @FairGrowthCmte dutifully studied America’s crisis of inequality in their final report and unique film @GritandGrace. By visiting communities across the country, it has helped chart a path toward a fairer, more prosperous economy for all. fairgrowth.house.gov/report
As #automation and the #ClimateCrisis reshape the American economy, it’s essential we invest in #WorkerTraining programs for the jobs of tomorrow. We discussed how to do just that at our roundtable on developing diverse pathways to #GoodJobs with #FairPay. Watch the recap 🛠👷
The @FairGrowthCmte applauds the recent passage of the omnibus spending bill that will provide crucial investments in #AmericanWorkers and the #MiddleClass. Check out our final report for our full list of recommendations to level the playing field ⚖️ ⬇️ fairgrowth.house.gov/report
Like all the families featured in @GritandGrace, Joseph Graham Jr’s story is one of resilience, determination and limitless ambition. Learn about his journey by watching our first-of-its-kind documentary and by reading this great @unccharlotte profile. ⤵️ exchange.charlotte.edu/charlotte-alum…
“The fact that we as a nation are almost dead last in investing in our youngest children amongst industrialized countries should sound alarms,” shared Chair Himes on the need to invest more in #ChildCare & #EarlyEducation. Check out the recommendations in our report for more ⬇️

In order to remain competitive, businesses need to offer #FairPay and benefits to provide #EconomicSecurity to their workers. @FairGrowthCmte recently met with #PrivateSector leaders for a roundtable discussion of #CorporateResponsibility. Check out the recap of what we heard ⬇️
Jeremy and Wendy Cook of West Virginia — one of the inspiring families featured in our documentary, “Grit & Grace: The Fight for the American Dream” — spoke with the @HampshireReview about their experience filming and the economic challenges they face. ⤵️ hampshirereview.com/news/article_5…

@RepJohnYarmuth @HouseDemocrats This year, House Budget Democrats secured affordable health care for millions, passed the largest clean energy investment in history, and fought to build an economy that works for working people.

Many thanks to @MichaelSteele for having me on @AymanMSNBC to discuss @FairGrowthCmte’s groundbreaking documentary-style film, @GritandGrace. We hope this bipartisan project highlights the power of storytelling and marks a shift in how Congress communicates with constituents. ⬇️
WATCH: @GritandGrace Co-Creator and Senior Producer @MrEricTHarris recently joined @MichaelSteele on @AymanMSNBC to discuss @FairGrowthCmte’s efforts to help Americans better understand each other and the economic challenges they face through our first-of-its-kind documentary. ⬇️

Via @IsiahHolmes8, @RepGwenMoore discusses new report from @FairGrowthCmte on wealth inequality nationwide. wisconsinexaminer.com/2022/12/19/rep…
TONIGHT AT 8: @MrEricTHarris, communications director for @FairGrowthCmte breaks down the new documentary “Grit and Grace” about economic inequality in America.
Have you seen @FairGrowthCmte's documentary yet? It's only 30 min and features a few real people living through their own real-life challenges and triumphs. Yet you'll likely learn more about why economic disparity matters/should matter than from any expert testimony or textbook.
To understand #EconomicDisparity, stories are just as important as numbers and data. With @GritandGrace, we set out to showcase the different shapes disparity can take and what it means to find #EconomicSecurity today. Watch the full 30-minute film 🎬⬇️ youtu.be/QxmzWeyYVJE
#OpportunityZones are one little piece of this huge effort by @FairGrowthCmte which has yielded a wealth of actionable ideas for public policymakers to promote inclusive growth. It is great news that there is so much we can do - it's urgent we get to it. youtube.com/watch?v=QxmzWe…
I am pleased to see the final report of @FairGrowthCmte recommends reform of Opportunity Zones along the lines I called for in my testimony to the committee earlier this year. fairgrowth.house.gov/report
Represent! The @FairGrowthCmte in Congress created a film. The subject matter is vital, so is expanding ways to submit public witness testimony for the record. More Art, video, sound, music = inclusive, informed lawmaking = stronger democracy. 👏 youtube.com/watch?v=iEIcQc…
@FairGrowthCmte @GritandGrace @washingtonpost Watched the livestream. Excellent! Lawmakers need to get out of DC & talk to “regular” folks like these & enact solutions; stop all the trolling & criticisms of the other party. “We are one people, one family, one house…we are tied together as a nation, as a people”-John Lewis
@FairGrowthCmte @NACoTweets @jahimes @carlosonhousing @GritandGrace Download the report & watch the film here fairgrowth.house.gov My testimony focused on the nexus between housing & transportation - I told them that our residents would say they need affordable housing near public transit to move them more quickly towards economic opportunity
Proud to participate with @FairGrowthCmte to examine what holds people back from economic opportunity. Last night's film premiere of Grit and Grace shows us why we must solve the country’s growing economic disparity gap. Disparity may be growing, but there are solutions.
We are so grateful for outstanding work, @FairGrowthCmte! You have been engaged in sacred work on behalf of the common good! @NETWORKLobby
And my wonderful @FairGrowthCmte colleagues ❤️😘👏
