VIRTUAL NWSOFA Indivisible May Fiscal and Economic Issues Meeting

Arlington Heights, IL 60004
When: Monday, May 17, 7:00 PM

The NWSOFA Fiscal and Economic Issues group will meet VIRTUALLY on Monday, May 17th at 7 pm. The Webex room will open by 6:50 pm. Come join us and share your thoughts.

The US is currently in the deepest downturn since the Great Depression of the 1930’s with 8.4 million fewer jobs than last February. The recovery faltered at the end of 2020, but is regaining momentum this year after passage of $900 billion in assistance in December and another $1.9 trillion this year. Job gains in February (468,000) and March (916,000) look promising for the recovery. We will get the data on April job gains on May 7th.

Note: While it doesn’t take millions of dollars to fund NWSOFA, we do have some costs associated with our digital tools, as well as stamps and other costs for mailings.
