New Campaign demands Good Jobs for Boston Residents and People of Color if Employers receive Public Support and Subsidies--the Chuck Turner/Community Stabilization Jobs Act. 


Building on a lifetime of leadership from Chuck Turner and others, we have drafted a new ordinance that demands stable, family sustaining jobs for Boston residents and people of color if those employers get public support or subsidy. 
  • We have taken legal language already in use around the country for new ways of creating economic equity--our proposed language has already had its first legal review! 
  • Three quarters of Boston's jobs go to people who do not live in Boston.  BY the city's own data, residents of color are tracked into lower paid occupations and industries--the structural legacy baked in to our racialized economy.
Take a look at the summary of the Community Stabilization/Chuck Turner Jobs Act.
We have also attached the draft language of the ordinance itself.
