Prioritizing the policy directives in this report: latinopolicyforum.org/public… is a necessary initial step for making sure that an overall recovery from #Covid by the #Latino community is not only attainable but equitable.
@PuentePolicy
Before the pandemic, #Latinos were important and very significant contributors to overall
economic stability/growth in #Illinois. But unfortunately, COVID was like a set of brakes stalling and slowing those contributions.

“While the Forum joins in celebrating the outcome of the 2022 Chicago Metro #Latino GDP report, we raise concerns about a view that, while accurate, does not highlight the fact that the community is not getting fair share of earnings from their contributions…”
