Mind the Gap: Confronting Wage and Wealth Disparity
|
By Cassandra Krause, Communications Manager, Wisconsin Bankers Association The wage gap, or the difference in earnings between different groups (most commonly women and men) — even in 2023 — continues to undermine the principles of fairness and equality in the workplace and society. The wage gap is compounded by the wealth gap, and the consequences on the economy and upward mobility can be far-reaching.

DE&I And You: How Association Leaders Can Turn Purposeful Words into Meaningful Action
|
By Lydia Riesch, Association of Equipment Manufacturers
Stop talking about diversity, equity and inclusion.
On its surface, that may seem like a strange position to take on what’s widely considered to be a relevant topic for most organizations today. However, the conversation around DE&I is highly saturated, with so many like-minded individuals making the same case for something already proven to be true.

Your Organization Can Join Tomorrow’s Workforce Coalition
|
The Tomorrow's Workforce Coalition, with now more than 500 organizations as members, advocates for economic development policy that would strengthen the workforce now and in the future: The Freedom to Invest in Tomorrow's Workforce Act (S. 722 / H.R. 1477). This bipartisan legislation would expand qualified expenses under 529 savings plans to include postsecondary training and credentialing programs, such as licenses and non-governmental certifications; it would provide valuable tax-advantaged resources to more workers pursuing career growth, mid-career changes or alternative career pathways.
