Deb Haaland on Jobs

	Deb Haaland on Jobs

Pro-union; advocate for fair trade policies for unions

I believe in good jobs: jobs that allow workers to pay the rent, put food on the table, care for families, and live with dignity. Labor rights and unions have long formed the backbone of American society and need to be protected at all costs to ensure workers can compete in a world of increasingly extreme income inequality and corporate power. I will advocate for fair trade policies that do justice to our Labor Unions, and against any assault on labor rights. Source: 2018 NM-1st House campaign website DebForCongress.com , Oct 9, 2018

$15/hr minimum wage and a federal job guarantee program

I will fight for: A federal $15 minimum wage so everyone who works full time can put food on the table and pay rent. People need good jobs with living wages. A federal job guarantee needs to be explored and could open the door to other ideas like a national childcare program, universal pre-k to address the education gap, and public art to make our cities more vibrant and livable. As automation increases and climate change shifts our landscape, we need to think about how to keep America working. Source: 2018 NM-1st House campaign website DebForCongress.com , Oct 9, 2018
