About us
The Center for American Progress is a think tank dedicated to improving the lives of Americans through ideas and action. We combine bold policy ideas with a modern communications platform to help shape the national debate, expose the hollowness of conservative governing philosophy, and challenge the media to cover the issues that truly matter. Our work builds upon progressive ideals put forth by such leaders as Teddy Roosevelt, FDR, JFK, and Martin Luther King. We draw from the great social movements of the 20th century—from labor rights and worker safety, to civil rights and women's suffrage. We translate those values into new ideas and action firmly rooted in the economic and political realities of the 21st century.

Schools that affirm and support LGBTQI+ students report lower rates of depression and suicidality by as much as 43%. But the authors behind Project 2025 want to reverse much of this nation’s progress by implementing anti-LGBTQ school policies that would increase harm towards LGBTQI+ students. https://lnkd.in/eByZPTXK

"In one sense, collaborating on green trade looks like an easy, open goal for India and the United States. But the long history of U.S.-Indian trade friction and the mainstreaming of trade skepticism in U.S. politics will also make it a delicate process, favoring a gradual, incremental approach.” https://lnkd.in/dg5V_tRS
