State and Local Recommendations for Reopening the Economy
Webinar
Join us for this webinar to hear state and local policy
recommendations for reopening the Economy, a collaborative effort
of over 60 organizations to chart a responsible and sustainable
pathway for the reopening of local and state economies in the
wake of COVID 19.
We believe that this moment provides state and local governments
an opportunity not only to continue leading the way through this
crisis but also in solving the structural problems the federal
government has too long neglected.
We will offer suggested best practice opportunities to provide a
blueprint for what state and local leaders can do immediately
across a range of issues, including Finance, Mobility,
Environment and Energy, Food System, Communications systems, Land
use, housing, Well-being, Health, and safety and Education. Most
of our suggested policies effectively provide not only economic
stimulus but lasting social, environmental, and public benefit.
Many should attract support across party lines. Some cost little
or nothing.
