If You Fund it, They Will Come. Federal Investment is rejuvenating Appalachia and beyond. Now, legislation threatens to stall Coal Country's Comeback.
What's at stake?

The new Pope, Leo XIV, took his papal name partially in homage to Leo XIII, the 19th century Pope who made protecting workers' rights an official part of Catholic doctrine during the industrial revolution with his encyclical Rerum Novarum.

“I was working full-time, making more than today’s $7.25 minimum with a much lower cost of living, but I still got evicted and had to rely on foodbanks,” said 32BJ Asst. Dist. Leader and Pittsburgh office cleaner Steve Kelley

The Fifth Annual Virtual Strategy Summit has officially concluded! We are so grateful to all our presenters, moderators, and breakout leaders.
TAKEAWAYS
🏆We should recognize the progress our region has made in clean energy, the environment, and economic justice in the last few years.
👩🏭Training workers in Appalachia should emphasize entrepreneurship - encouraging trainees (who know their communities best) to use their skills to then create new opportunities.
🤝Strengthening collaboration in the region must involve storytelling with a "bigger tent" of subjects. Bringing more people in to have a voice in how the region will move forward will create more momentum!

"It's ridiculous that Pennsylvania has a lower minimum wage than its neighbors as well as states like Arkansas, Florida and Nebraska, where voters had a chance to pass raises through ballot initiatives" said BFMW CEO Holly Sklar. via @CBSNews

Wages are rising for Black and Hispanic workers in PA, beating inflation by more than $3 since 2015.
But is that enough to close the racial pay gap?
