From the speech:
Today, I will:
• Describe the struggles of American businesses and workers as they confront
the harsh realities of today's economy.
• Explain why the upheaval of the U.S. economy did not begin during the
Great Recession of 2008-2010 and why it will not disappear when the
economy recovers later this decade.
• Explain why millions of Americans have been working scared for more than
a decade and with good reason.
• Outline an agenda of common-sense actions to help employees, employers,
educators, and government policymakers respond to/manage current and
future labor markets.
