Commissioned by the Center for Partnership Studies (CPS) and released by the Urban Institute in June 2010, this report has been endorsed by individuals and organizations representing over 30 million people who have joined with CPS in urging the Obama Administration and Congress to adopt the report's recommendations.

A Full-Spectrum Job Creation Proposal

This report proposes that investment in the real wealth of our nation – its people – is essential to stimulate our economy, help families, radically reduce poverty and violence, reward women’s economic contributions, save billions in crime and prisons, and produce the “high quality human capital” needed for our post-industrial economy. The Full-Spectrum Job-Creation Proposal was presented to President Obama and used by U.S. policy makers in drafting their final 2009 job creation program.
