We founded Employ America in 2019 to confront the policy failures following the Global Financial Crisis. Today, a weakening labor market, shifts in global energy demand, and rising geopolitical and trade tensions require policymakers to address challenges from all fronts.
Employ America is uniquely positioned to meet the moment. We combine a deep understanding of the macroeconomic picture with bold, innovative legal thinking to craft the policies needed for sustained prosperity, improving conditions for workers and unleashing the full potential of the American economy
Our Team
Our team brings together experts in economics, finance, law, and policy advocacy united by a commitment to full employment as the cornerstone of a strong economy.
Our History
Throughout the 2010s, inadequate macroeconomic policy response led to a "lost decade" for workers and the American economy. When we launched, our goal was to prevent these failures from occurring again, and to cement full employment as a foundational economic policy priority.
Our Strategic Process
Crafting and advocating for high-impact policies that can be deployed on a dime requires a strong strategic process.
