    In my latest post I disagree w/ President Trump's declaration in his speech of a "blue-collar boom". In interviews w/ low-wage workers over the past yr, w/ colleagues, we heard 4 themes that contradict Trump's claim: 1/

    The working class today faces historic inequality in both power & prosperity. A more equitable economy that truly delivers for working people requires a rebalancing of that power, and policy changes to address the structural forces that exclude workers 5/

    Trump’s claim that the economy is the “best it’s ever been.” Employers once demonstrated “family values,”—investing in employees and offering benefits, activities, and upward mobility - but now workers believe their bosses focus on shareholders and profits above all else. 4/

    retail workers we interviewed. (3) Despite the rosy headlines, workers described feeling uncertain & uneasy about their future - as more and more retail stores shutter their doors and new technologies enter the workplace. (4) Finally, workers w/ longer tenures contradicted 3/

    (1) low unemployment figures mask widespread economic precarity. As my colleagues pointed out, 44% of workers barely make enough $ to live. (2) Rising wages mean little if workers can’t get enough hours or qualify for benefits - a frequent concern of 2/

    Great thread on Warren and Buttigieg’s child care proposals. 👏👏 to both for making issue a priority, especially for lower income parents. can be a triple win: better outcomes for children, > econ mobility for parents & better jobs for childcare workers.

    To my point about men dominating conception of who a worker is, see this video: vast majority of those at work are men. Women outnumber men in many working class occupations - but are rarely visible in how we talk about work. (Not a knock on Joe Biden, illustrates bigger point)

    Coverage of jobs at risk focus on male industries (production, driving) over female ones (retail, administrative jobs), while stories about & interest in fast-growing jobs prioritize IT/cyber/software over female-dominated health fields. This gap translates to policy as well.

    The problem is much deeper than this. Google image the term "worker" and you'll likely see an image that looks like this fellow. In everything from media stories to policy discussions to our own subconscious, (mostly white) men dominate our conception of who a worker is.

    Important thread. I remain grateful to my previous employers, & , for providing me 3 & 6 months paid parental leave, respectively, when my children were born. In America, I knew what an enormous privelege this leave was. I wish it wasn’t.

    "It’s just not what it once was." As further evidenced by the news from Macys today, retail sector is in dramatic upheaval, w/ so many jobs on line. Role of financialization & private equity needs far > scrutiny.
