[PEN-L:9025] Idea for State-Level Jobs Initiative



I'm working with a Bay Area coalition of unions, welfare rights organizers,
churches, and various liberals and lefties called People for Bread, Work,
and Justice.  As part of building a campaign to fight around welfare,
living wages, and jobs, we're kicking around the idea of a statewide
tax-the-rich-and-create-a-jobs-fund ballot initiative.

Does anyone have any suggestions for what the jobs part should consist of?
Has any other state (or small country) done something similar?

Thanks,
Anders Schneiderman

P.S.  Does anyone know what's going on with Sustainable Milwaukee?  Anybody
have an email address?
