The Economy and Jobs
Congressman Hank Johnson has consistently championed policies to strengthen the economy and uplift working Americans. He’s supported job-creating legislation, including the Bipartisan Infrastructure Package and investments in projects and training programs for local industries in Georgia’s 4th District. Hank led efforts to increase wages by voting for the Raise the Wage Act and co-sponsored critical job-supporting bills like the Summer Jobs Act and the Federal Jobs Guarantee Development Act. He has also backed legislation that protects consumers, ensures fair wages, and safeguards families from financial exploitation. Congressman Johnson opposes the Trump administration’s arbitrary mass firing of federal employees. Going forward, he remains committed to creating jobs, extending unemployment benefits when needed, protecting workers’ rights, and supporting middle-class tax relief.
