Tim Kaine, Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in Virginia, unveiled his economic agenda Wednesday, pitching many of the populist measures the White House has pushed in the run-up to President Obama’s reelection.

Kaine called for a three-pronged approach centered on boosting employment by increasing access to capital and jumpstarting infrastructure and green-energy projects, building an educated workforce and balancing the budget with a combination of spending cuts and tax increases.
