Middle Class Task Force from Office of Vice President Joe Biden

The Task Force is targeted at raising the living standards of middle-class, working families in America. It is comprised of top-level administration policy makers, and in addition to regular meetings, it will conduct outreach sessions with representatives of labor, business, and the advocacy communities. Chaired by Vice President Joe Biden, the task force will expedite administrative reforms, propose Executive orders, and develop legislative and policy proposals that can be of special importance to working families. The goals of the Task Force are to expand education and lifelong training opportunities; improve work and family balance; restore labor standards, including workplace safety; help protect middle-class and working-family incomes; and protect retirement security.
