State of the Dream 2011: Austerity for Whom?

Austerity for Whom? surveys the impacts of a tax-cutting, government-shrinking economic agenda – as prescribed by Republican leadership with Tea Party allies – on communities of color.

This report includes data on public sector employment, income, wealth and reliance on social programs, as well as compelling evidence that public investments strengthen the economy more than tax cuts for the wealthy. Download the full report here.
