Jobs and the Economy Taskforce

Goal / Description:

America has faced economic problems for sometime now. The attacks on September 11, 2001 have made our economic challenges much greater. The Task Force will study the difficulties facing the economy - from jobs and tax policy to rebuilding and recovery. And we will keep in mind America's long-term fiscal health, which is still crucial to America's long-term economic health. Our purpose is not to finger point, or for discussions about what could have been done before. We will pull together, to come to consensus, and do our part to ensure the economy gets back on its feet.
