21.11: Jobs
Improve Access to Jobs Other Information:
America's families and businesses depend upon workers having reasonable access to their places of employment. Barack Obama
and Joe Biden will double the federal Jobs Access and Reverse Commute (JARC) program to ensure that additional federal public
transportation dollars flow to the highest-need communities and that urban planning initiatives take this aspect of transportation
policy into account. The Obama-Biden urban agenda will also help facilitate the creation of new jobs in underserved economic
areas, so more low-income urban residents can find employment within their home communities.
