Looking to the Future: Demographic Shifts and the Future of State Policy

NCSL Legislative Summit: Aug. 15, 2013

Overview

As baby boomers age, immigration slows and the Latino population expands, the country is on the verge of a "cultural generation gap" that will affect state policy, from schools to the workforce to health care. Hear from the Pew Research Center's Paul Taylor, who sparked an energetic, wide-ranging and forward-looking discussion of what these demographic changes mean for state policymakers at NCSL's 2013 Legislative Summit.

Speaker

Paul Taylor, director, Pew Research Center Social and Demographic Trends Project, Washington, D.C.
