About this Event
More people are leaving Massachusetts than arriving in almost every demographic category. Among the culprits: Escalating housing and childcare costs, deficient public transportation infrastructure, and increased freedom to work remotely. And businesses naturally gravitate to less expensive areas with ample labor.
With the labor pool shrinking, Gov. Healey has made Massachusetts economic competitiveness one of the cornerstones of her administration and has reduced business taxes, recently signed a housing bill and proposed an ambitious climate tech initiative, among several efforts. And yet the need for bold and creative policy solutions persists, as the lifeblood of the Massachusetts economy is a skilled and growing workforce.
Join leading legislators, business leaders, advocates, along with representatives from the emerging workforce, for a policy forum that explores challenges and opportunities to make Massachusetts an even greater place to live and work.
