Description
2020 Democratic Presidential Candidate Andrew Yang is coming to Keene!
Meet one of the most exciting candidates in the 2020 US Presidential Election, Andrew Yang (D), with the New Hampshire Youth Movement in Keene, NH. Andrew is looking to bring his experience as a successful tech entrepreneur and innovator to the White House.
In 2011 he founded Venture for America (VFA), and spent 6 years helping create more than 2,500 jobs in cities like Cleveland, Detroit, and Pittsburgh.
While traveling the country for VFA, Andrew realized that artificial intelligence threatens one-third of all jobs and that we need a vision for a radically different future. In his book, The War on Normal People (April 2018), he explains this crisis, arguing for The Freedom Dividend, a form of universal basic income that would provide every American adult $1,000 per month. In fact, Andrew is piloting this policy proposal by giving the Fassi family of Goffstown $1,000/month for the year of 2019!
Join Andrew at The Works in Keene to discuss the future of America. Bring your questions!

We hope to see you there!
