Investing in #infrastructure isn't simply about "creating good jobs" now, but supporting long-term career pathways for more workers in more places.

Biden, Congress, and other federal leaders need to focus on both. https://brook.gs/3j6lBF9 

That means hiring, training, and retaining more workers in positions that offer higher pay and pose lower formal educational barriers to entry, including many in transportation and the skilled trades @rpuentes

And it also means connecting more workers to fast-growing careers in clean energy that can address our #climate needs @MarkMuro1

But we have a lot of work to do. Federal leaders need to collaborate with a variety of regional leaders to better measure our needs, form new plans, and help those traditionally underrepresented in the infrastructure space: younger workers, women, and people of color.
