<h2>77% OF EMPLOYERS SAY THEY STRUGGLE TO FILL OPEN JOBS.</h2><h2>ARE YOU ONE OF THEM? WE CAN HELP.</h2>As the nation rebuilds and makes strides toward recovery, we need an approach to putting Americans back to work that is simple, fast, and employer-led.

Join the U.S. Chamber of Commerce for Equality of Opportunity In Action: Historical Perspective on Black Wall Street and its Relevance to Business Today. We will be joined in conversation by&nbsp;award-winning&nbsp;actor,&nbsp;humanitarian&nbsp;and&nbsp;executive producer of&nbsp;Heroes of Black Wall Street, Danny Glover,&nbsp;and other business leaders discussing the&nbsp;legacy&nbsp;of the Black-owned businesses of Tulsa's&nbsp;Greenwood District and&nbsp;pathways to&nbsp;success for today’s Black-owned enterprises.&nbsp;Early in the twentieth century, the Greenwood District of Tulsa, Oklahoma was the epicenter for African American entrepreneurs. The thriving, dynamic business district, comprised of a 35 square-block area, became known as Black Wall Street. Resentment over black economic success and a racially hostile climate eventually led to the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre. The Greenwood District was burned and the people as well as their businesses, property and dreams vanished.&nbsp;&nbsp;Against&nbsp;great odds, the Greenwood District’s pioneering entrepreneurs rebuilt the community from the ashes. By 1942, more than 200 black-owned businesses called the Greenwood District home.&nbsp; In subsequent decades, integration, urban renewal, and economic changes sparked a prodigious decline in the Greenwood District.&nbsp;Buoyed by its powerful past, the Greenwood District still lives in its new incarnation of a business, educational, recreational, cultural, and entertainment hub.&nbsp;

The global pandemic created an unprecedented economic and health crisis for the United States and the world. While the rapid development and deployment of vaccines offers hope for a robust economic recovery in the United States, the pandemic highlighted the need for strong U.S. leadership on the international stage to reinvigorate growth, strengthen trade and build resilient supply chains to support a global recovery. Investing in U.S. competitiveness and joining hands with our allies and partners, will be critical to build a better and more inclusive future - creating healthier communities, supporting entrepreneurship, and expanding access to innovative technologies.With these goals in mind, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce will convene its inaugural Global Forum on Economic Recovery on May 18 and 19, 2021, led by U.S. Chamber CEO and President Suzanne Clark. The forum will bring together government leaders and business executives to discuss the opportunities and impediments to a dynamic global recovery.

As demand for cleaner energy sources continues to grow, the need to build new energy infrastructure is greater than ever.&nbsp; However, the byzantine federal permitting process is neither predictable, nor transparent, and inhibits capital investment to bring new energy platforms to market, including non-emitting electricity generation and transmission.&nbsp; This webinar will highlight the inefficiencies of the permitting process as well as common sense, bipartisan solutions to unlock investment in the next generations of energy infrastructure.
