Report:
The
Economic Security Scorecard grades state-level policies on their potential to
improve the economic security of workers, families and retirees. The Scorecard
examines 85 policy choices in 20 different policy areas, and can be used to
identify policy strengths and weaknesses, apply an economic security framework
to policy making, and reconsider public investment and budget priorities. The
Scorecard also examines and grades for each state the affordability of basic
costs of living, such as housing, health care and transportation, for
working-age and senior households.
