Commonwealth Foundation and American Legislative Exchange Council cordially invite you to a Policies & Principles Luncheon: "Rich States, Poor States"
For decades, Pennsylvania has ranked near the bottom of the fifty states in economic growth, with stagnant job, population and income growth, while losing resident to other states. Why do some states thrive, while others lag? A new report from the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), Rich States, Poor States examines the economic policies and outcomes of the fifty states, and outlines which public policies successful states have adopted. Jonathan Williams, a co-author of the report will be on hand to discuss the findings and state economic trends. Alan Smith, Executive Director of ALEC will also be on hand to discuss how lawmakers can make Pennsylvania more economically competitive.
