(WASHINGTON) – In response to the ongoing jobs crisis in America, Congressman John Conyers, Jr. (D-Mich.) and Congresswoman Frederica Wilson (D-Fla.) will announce the creation of the Congressional Full Employment Caucus tomorrow morning, January 29th at 10:00 a.m. in 2226 Rayburn House Office Building. With 24 million new jobs needed to end the unacceptably high rate of unemployment and underemployment, and to reach full employment, Congress must take an active role to ensure adequate opportunities are available as it has historically. The Full Employment Caucus will serve as a working group and platform for Members dedicated to identifying solutions to our current unemployment crisis and advocating for legislative action. Ultimately, the goal of the Caucus is to realize the dream of a society in which every American who wants to work has the right to some form of employment.
For further information about the Congressional Full Employment Caucus or the press conference, please contact Jenny Perrino (Rep. Conyers) at 202-225-5126 or jenny.perrino@mail.house.gov , or Justin Zorn (Rep. Wilson) at 202-225-4506 or justin.zorn@mail.house.gov.
