Economic Mobility
Making our economy thrive by promoting innovation, entrepreneurship, and more inclusive growth.
Private markets, humanized by compassionate government, hold the key to bolstering upward mobility and laying a strong foundation for growth in the 21st century.
Cities and neighborhoods make a powerful difference to people’s opportunities and advance a policy agenda that creates better paths to good 21st century jobs. The Bush Institute promotes and supports economic development policies that help cities and towns reinvent themselves as engines of upward mobility. This is encouraged through:
- Workforce initiatives that create better paths to good 21st century jobs
- Wealth building for American families by addressing the barriers to upward mobility posed by housing affordability challenges
- Sustainable fiscal reform that creates more growth friendly tax policies and stabilizes the spiraling national debt
