Jennifer Erickson, Director of Competitiveness and Economic Growth at the Center for American Progress, will be speaking at the Panhandle Tiger Bay Club on “The Middle Class Squeeze†Friday, March 20.
In September, the Center for American Progress (CAP) released its report regarding how the middle class in America is being squeezed between stagnant wages and rising costs. Erickson was the editor of the report and will discuss its findings and the impacts those findings will have on the American economy. Whether called “The Wealth Gapâ€, “Income Disparityâ€, or “Middle Class Squeezeâ€, this issue is destined to have a significant impact on the direction of American public policy and the 2016 elections.
