Hillary Clinton Pitches Plan for 'Growth and Fairness Economy'-HRC ROOM



HILLARY CLINTON ROOM

by CARRIE DANN

Hillary Clinton offered her vision Monday of a "growth and fairness economy," saying that her agenda would boost Americans' incomes and push companies to share profits with their employees.

"I believe we have to build a growth and fairness economy. You can't have one without the other," she said during remarks at the New School in New York City.

The 2016 Democratic candidate said that incomes have stalled even as corporate profits have skyrocketed, creating inequality that is "a drag on our entire economy."

"And, please, let's get back to making decisions that rely on evidence more than ideology...I will seek out, and welcome, any good idea that is actually based on reality."

"I want to have principled and pragmatic and progressive policies that really move us forward together."

"Part of public service is planting trees under whose shade you will never sit."



Do these things as the guiding light. Reality.
