The State of the American Workforce

American Action Forum President Doug Holtz-Eakin yesterday gave the following testimony to the Education and Workforce Committee. He centered his testimony around a few simple points:

• The distress of the American workforce is palpable
• Improved pro-growth policies - not more "stimulus" - are the key to a successful policy response
• There exist currently important policy impediments to growth and job-creation
• Over the longer term education reform will be central to the success of the American workforce
