“President-elect Donald Trump succeeded, in part, through an appeal to working class voters who have seen their incomes stagnate or fall for decades, the jobs they depended on moved off-shore, and their hopes for a secure retirement dwindle.Trump correctly told them that U.S. trade treaties contributed to these problems and that the Trans-Pacific Partnership would only make matters worse. However, these trade treaties are just one way that policy has indeed been rigged to suppress wages for the vast majority of Americans. Millions of working Americans of all races are struggling, while the benefits of growth have gone only to people at the very top of the income ladder. Working class Americans want what everyone wants: good jobs and hope for a better future. Now, the Trump administration and a GOP congress will have to deliver. How will a Trump administration lift wages for low and middle income Americans? As EPI has been promoting for decades, there are specific policies that will raise wages. The only way to raise wages for the vast majority of American workers is to give workers more power. For far too long, employers have held all the cards.Trump has called for a higher minimum wage. A truly bold increase in the minimum wage would lift pay for the bottom quarter or more of the workforce. He has called for a massive increase in spending on infrastructure to have highways, bridges, airports, tunnels, and schools that are second to none, which would create hundreds of thousands of jobs on its own. If infrastructure is paid for by gutting other Federal spending then its job creation benefits would be neutralized. Whether infrastructure jobs will pay middle class wages depends on federal law and whether union contractors do the lion’s share of the work. Trump’s support for prevailing wage laws will be a key test of his commitment to higher wages for middle class workers. With respect to immigration, a path to citizenship and reforming work visas are a better road to improving wages for the vast majority of Americans than building walls. Immigration policy should be changed so that employers do not have the easy option of undercutting wages by importing workers on non-immigrant guest visas that fail to provide basic labor protections. Most of Trump’s economics agenda is the tax cutting and deregulation approach that Republicans have pursued over the last few decades, the approach that failed to produce rising wages for the vast majority of American workers. Revisiting those policies is not a recipe for middle class economic success. EPI will stand with our partner organizations to insist that the policy actions that follow this election truly support workers and their families.” See related work on Wages, Incomes, and Wealth | Immigration | Trans-Pacific Partnership
