Millions of Jobs Could Be Created with Policy Changes and with New Infrastructure Investment, New Milken Institute Study Shows

摘要

Changes to U.S. economic and tax policies can add 2.9 million jobs by 2019, while more than 3.5 million jobs can be created in each of the next three years by supporting investment in 10 key infrastructure project categories, according to Jobs for America: Investments and policies for economic growth and competitiveness, released today by the Milken Institute. The study analyzes two different approaches to how the United States can retain and create new jobs - one on the policy side and the other on the investment side. The first outlines the potential growth in jobs and GDP that would result from changes to economic and tax policies and the second calculates the impact that $425.6 billion in infrastructure investments would have on job creation and the economy.
