This report shows 43% of families w/ children in Greater #ROC are "struggling," meaning they don't earn enough to make ends meet. To move 50% of them out of that status, we'd need to create 28,062 new jobs that pay "family-sustaining wages" - set at $23.02 in this market.https://twitter.com/BrookingsMetro/status/1362474477607657476 …

With 14M households struggling to make ends meet, a new report identifies, for every metro, the family-sustaining wage threshold and number of family-sustaining wage jobs required to move half of those families w/ children into self-sufficiency. https://brook.gs/3s3kyZW pic.twitter.com/JmRP5qtoIQ
