Proud to have collaborated with UnidosUS (@WeAreUnidosUS) on a new report on the economic status of the Hispanic community. Some takeaways: *The Latino community is a crucial engine of the US economy, contributing $3.2T in economic output, which exceeds the economies of India, the UK, and France. *While the Hispanic community, and especially working-class Latinos, suffered devastating economic and health impacts during the pandemic, bold federal relief policies were highly effective at moving Latinos out of poverty, keeping working-class Latinos in their homes, reducing unemployment, increasing real wages, and stabilizing families in crisis. Middle-class Latinos also experienced substantial increases in household wealth. *Unfortunately, some of the economic gains these policies fostered have eroded as many pandemic-era federal economic supports (the enhanced child tax credit to name just one) have expired, while the full benefits of the last wave of federal investments (IRA, CHIPS Act, Bipartisan Infrastructure Law) have yet to be fully realized. And although inflation has tempered, high prices—for food, everyday goods, housing, and health care—are pushing many working-class Latinos back into crisis. *Nevertheless, the relief policies the federal government enacted during the pandemic prove that bold and targeted public investments can stabilize households in crisis, significantly reduce poverty, and expand opportunities for both middle- and working-class Latinos. We need to sustain and broaden these investments. There is a lot more in the report, including details on an economic plan to support Latino workers and families and strengthen the future US economy. https://lnkd.in/ekPiEC_b

Immigrants continue to build up our economy! #GoodForMichigan "According to the new analysis of federal labor statistics and census data by Robert Fairlie, an economist and professor at UCLA, immigrants had the highest rate of new business creation among U.S. adults. The Wall Street Journal first reported on the study. - About 670 out of 100,000 immigrants — or 0.67% of immigrants — launched a new business each month in 2023. The overall average for the adult population was 0.35%. The immigrant data isn't broken down by race or ethnicity. - Latinos also had staggeringly higher rates of new business ownership than any other racial or ethnic group. - That number was 0.6% for Latinos, or 600 Latinos out of 100,000; 0.34% for Black Americans; 0.31% for Asian Americans; and 0.28% for white Americans." https://lnkd.in/eJGM8vJF

How do we power #LatinoWealth? A couple of recent reports are giving us clues. Here is the latest from McKinsey: "The economic state of Latinos in America: Advancing financial growth." The research projects the Latino wealth market will organically grow to about $265 billion in 2030, 8% of the total value of the financial-services market. The call to action to financial institutions: "...get to know Latino customers, remove the barriers to their participation in the financial system, court them, and serve them effectively could earn more of the market while supporting Latino communities’ financial mobility." Seems simple, right? What are you doing to help grow #collectivewealth in the Latino community?

How can policymakers better provide the public with a clear picture of the number, geographic distribution, and socioeconomic situations of Middle Eastern and North African (MENA) Americans? The inclusion of a new racial category on all federal government documents could help narrow inequities and provide necessary #data to advance #opportunities for the #MENA American community. In a new Urban Wire piece, learn more about how federal race and ethnicity categories could lead to a more equitable future for Middle Eastern Americans. https://urbn.is/4dwdvRm

🎤 Our team at Equis Research released new polling last week fielded pre-debate. Here are the top lines: ➡ Harris remains with a steady lead over Trump, and is doing better than Biden was with Latinos, (now just a few points shy of reaching 2020 levels, including in Pennsylvania, Arizona and Nevada.) ➡ The economy continues to be a tug of war between the two. Though Trump has a +3 edge on being “better for the US economy”, Harris has a significant lead (+21) on “better for working class families.” ➡ Harris’s economic policies are also widely popular among Hispanic voters particularly: housing, health care costs and childcare. Keep an eye out for more research to come in the next few weeks. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gM3A6EXk

This past Wednesday I had the honor of being a panelist for an internal initiative, Being an Active Ally. As part of Hispanic Heritage Month, this month's panel was educating our fellow Ameriprise colleagues on ways to be an Active Ally to the Hispanic and Latino Community. I discussed eye opening statistics and upward moving trends about our growing community and concluded with specific areas of planning our community can capitalize on for the betterment of our families and businesses. 1. The U.S. Latino Economy grew by 13% to $3.6 Trillion in 2022 2. If U.S. Latinos were an independent country, our GDP would rank 5th in the world and be the second-fast-growing economy 3. The U.S. Latino population increased by 1.65% between 2021-2022, while the non-Latino population grew by just 0.08% 4. In 2022, the median net worth of Hispanic households reached $63,400- 3.17 times higher than in 2013, when adjusted for inflation 5. The largest 5 states by Latino GDP: California: $935.2 billion Texas: $686.6 billion Florida: $347.8 billion New York: $268 billion Illinois: $125 billion I want to thank Rudy Rodriguez, Taryn Ellis, and the rest of the Ameriprise DEI Team for having me be part of this impactful conversation.

There are a lot of misconceptions out there about economic disparities in our country, and why they not only persist but continue to grow. But the data doesn't lie. On this #FactFriday I want to highlight some findings the Urban Institute released yesterday: "In 1983, the average wealth of white families was about $320,000 higher than the average wealth of Black families and Hispanic families. By 2022, white families’ average wealth ($1.4 million) was more than $1 million higher than that of Black families ($211,596) and Hispanic families ($227,544)." "The average white man between ages 58 and 62 in 2022 earned $2.9 million over his career, while the average Black man earned $1.8 million and the average Hispanic man earned $1.7 million. Women earn less overall but gaps remain: the average white woman earned $1.7 million over her career, while the average Black woman earned $1.3 million and the average Hispanic woman earned $883,000." Of course, they found similar disparities in homeownership, retirement savings, and emergencies savings- all three of which are exacerbated by, and exacerbate, the racial wealth gap. The Urban Institute attributes the disparities to current and historic systemic racism- this is why we must persist in our efforts to address the racial wealth gap. #economicdisparities #economicmobility #homeownership #wealthgap #equity Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta https://lnkd.in/e4GVYgGf
