ECONOMIC JUSTICE
BUILDING A NEBRASKA WHERE EVERYONE HAS A REAL CHANCE TO ACHIEVE THEIR DREAMS
Regardless of people’s circumstances, everyone should have the resources and opportunities needed to thrive. Our goal is to clear a path to allow Nebraskans to have those opportunities. When we find a barrier, we attempt to address it at the root cause so that people can better move ahead. We work to:
- Improve public assistance services and programs that help Nebraskans move ahead.
- Create better access to education and skill development.
- Create opportunity by increasing wages and benefits.
We try to think about the entire system. How can we ensure everyone has opportunity? What barriers exist now? What can be done to advance equity?
