The United States and Pennsylvania economies are at a pivot point: Will we build forward better or will we build back the same? Will we make things even worse? This report revisits the policy choices that lie ahead. Most of this annual checkup on the Pennsylvania economy, the 26th "State of Working Pennsylvania," presents labor market and other economic data that amount to a statement of need: Pennsylvania and the United States must, finally and firmly, enact national and state policies that make our economy work for all, and for the common good. [For the 2019 report, see ED624085.]
