This event has concluded. You can watch the recorded discussions below.
America is the land of opportunity. So how should we respond when new evidence shows that some families actually feel discouraged from working harder for the American Dream? Some families in Utah have limited their economic progression because they’re worried that earning more may trigger something called “benefits cliffs,” which would leave them worse off or stuck in the same place.
Attendees at this important event joined us in exploring reforms that can strengthen the American Dream for our fellow Utahns.
