Placing Work and Workers at the Center of Economic Life

This Labor Day, our country continues to struggle with a broken economy that is not producing enough decent jobs.  Millions of Americans suffer from unemployment, underemployment or are living in poverty as their basic needs too often go unmet.

This represents a serious economic and moral failure for our nation.  As people of faith, we are called to stand with those left behind, offer our solidarity, and join forces with "the least of these" to help meet their basic needs.  We seek national economic renewal that places working people and their families at the center of economic life.
