National Urban League Plan For Putting Americans Back To Work

November 24, 2009

Dear National Leaders,

I am writing to you on behalf of the over 27 million underemployed Americans in desperate need of full-time employment. This includes not only the unemployed, but also the marginally attached and those working part-time for economic reasons, all of whom are struggling to make ends meet during these difficult economic times. As you are well aware, the news that in October, the national unemployment rate exceeded ten percent for the first time since the early 1980s was a sobering wake-up for the leadership of this country even to the point of soliciting a call for a Jobs Summit to be held after the Thanksgiving holiday. While I applaud the Administration for publicly acknowledging the gravity of our nation's employment situation, I would add that double-digit unemployment has been a reality for communities of color since last summer
