A Better Deal conference on young adult mobility happening
 The Student PIRGs are partners with Demos in their important conference -- A Better Deal: Reclaiming Economic Security For A New Generation -- this Thursday and Friday in Washington DC.
It's getting harder for young adults to get ahead in America. Compared to previous generations, today's 20-somethings earn less, carry more debt and pay more for everything from health care to housing. With young people voting in record numbers, it's time to put this generation's economic crisis on the national agenda and build a movement for a better deal. Keynotes are SEIU's Andy Stern and Katrina vanden Heuvel of The Nation. Luke Swarthout and Chris Lindstrom are panelists from the Student PIRGs. The conference is free. Get more information here.
