And to be clear, those households making less than $40K were already hurting even before the job loss... Our goal for beyond this crisis cannot be to go back to that kind of "normal" We can't sacrifice standards for #JobQuality like we did in the last "recovery"
Wow. Fed Chair Powell just said: "Almost 40% of those in households making less than $40,000 a year lost a job in March." This is according to a Fed survey coming out tomorrow. It measures the pain among people who were working in January & February.
@CuyahogaHHS A4: I do, I've had relatives and friends incarcerated. Coming home is a struggle because they have to readjust to a new way of living. They have to deal with the stigma of a record. They have to rebuild relationships with their families. #ReEntryWeek2020
@CuyahogaHHS We agree with the Office of Reentry, people deserve a chance to gain meaningful work/training! #ReEntryWeek2020
