Dear Friends,
We all know it: if you want to save democracy, improve lives, and make government work, start in the states. This means supporting candidates through election day, and supporting lawmakers in office with good policy and the tools they need to succeed.
In 2021, state lawmakers must take bold action to respond to the compounding crises of this moment while strengthening our future in ways that will benefit all Americans. After months of working with leading lawmakers from across the country, our policy affiliate, Future Now has released the America’s Goal’s 2021 Policy Agenda to do just that. I encourage you to take a look.
Curated over months by twenty leading lawmakers from around the country, the America’s Goals 2021 Policy Agenda reflects the rich diversity of our nation: representatives from rural, urban, and suburban districts, states large and small, and serving in minorities and majorities, with nearly two-thirds identifying as people of color, and a majority as women. The policies in this agenda have broad public support, include a way of paying for themselves, and will tangibly improve people’s lives in this time of crisis.
Working with Future Now, state lawmakers focused on improving lives can achieve a healthy, prosperous, and sustainable future. This better future can only be achieved if you are part of the effort. Thank you for being a partner in this work.
Onward,
Daniel
