NWSOFA Indivisible October Fiscal and Economic Issues Meeting
| When: | Monday, October 19, 7:00 PM |
|---|
David and Karl will give an update on the US economy and the fiscal (budget deficit) situation.
We will discuss why Illinois’ Fair Tax Amendment is good for Illinois and most Illinois residents.
The US is in a recession that started in February 2020. Real GDP growth is negative since President Trump took office.
Despite decent job recoveries from May-August, the US economy is still down over 10 million jobs versus February; 4.7 million jobs since President Trump took office.
The fiscal year 2020 budget deficit is projected to exceed $3 trillion, more than twice the previous record set in President Bush’s last budget year.
Come join us and give us your thoughts.
