Hispanic Communities — Powering a New American Economy
Hispanic and Latino American communities are driving economic growth and shaping the U.S. workforce. There are 63.7 million Hispanics or Latinos in the United States and the number is growing. They make up about 19% of the population — and 19% of the workforce — now. By 2060, one in four Americans is expected to be Hispanic.
They are already a vital part of the U.S. economy and their continued economic mobility is crucial.
Our new interactive WorkingNation digital magazine Hispanic Communities — Powering a New American Economy offers a powerful narrative of economic progress, connecting communities and solutions to inspire a more inclusive and equitable future.
Through videos focusing on Los Angeles, New York, Houston, Chicago, and Puerto Rico, and podcasts examining systemic challenges, the magazine highlights stories of resilience, innovation, and community-driven solutions.
From combating wage theft to increasing access to education and capital, these efforts illustrate how grassroots initiatives are breaking down barriers and creating pathways to success.
