Opinion | Ivanka Trump's new program wants to fight unemployment by closing the 'skills gap.' But that's a fundamental misunderstanding of how the economy works. By AngelaHanks of Groundwork.

suggested the "coming wave of automation and digital technology" and demand for more skilled workers has arrived with the growth of telecommuting in the coronavirus economy.

It's clear that millions of Americans are out of work not because they lack the skills to get a job, but because the government has failed to contain the pandemic and mitigate the devastating economic fallout.In severe downturns like the current crisis or the Great Recession it's clear that it's not a lack of skills keeping people out of work. So what why does this myth persist?

When the supply of workers suddenly increases—in this case as a result of a pandemic—employers can afford to be choosier about who they hire, what wages they pay, and the skills required to do the job. Indeed, there is evidence that shows thatdepending on the strength of the labor market.

Just as concerning, the skills gap narrative puts the onus on the individual to improve their skills, while absolving public institutions of their role in creating good jobs, raising wages, establishing meaningful labor standards — or in this case, keeping families and the economy afloat amid an unprecedented crisis. It also ignores how deeply baked racism and sexism are in our labor market and how that impacts the distribution of jobs and wages.
