Transforming Our Economy So Young People Can Thrive
A fundamental cause of social inequity is our capitalist economic system, which serves the needs of industry and corporate profits over the needs of the people who live and work here. In our vision, a just society creates safety by supporting us all with policies that help us meet our most basic human needs and ensure that we have equal access to employment, livable wages, and health care. Increasingly, young people find themselves in poverty due to crushing student debt, impacting every aspect of their lives, including their ability to start a family. URGE believes that young people deserve economic policies that allow them to grow and thrive.
