About ProsperUS
ProsperUS is a coalition of movement groups, labor organizations, think tanks, experts, and advocates. Each partner organization has a unique focus and role to play in shaping the future—some focus on federal policy, some work in states and localities; some organize frontline communities, some bring together economists; some run campaigns, some conduct data analysis and research, and some work toward narrative change.
We are united in our belief that the government should prioritize people’s needs—an idea that is economically sound and broadly popular.
We all know that large scale, long term investments are the only way to achieve our collective goals, build more successful and powerful movements for justice, act on climate, and defeat inequality, racism, sexism, ableism, xenophobia, and other injustices.
We’re committed to defeating the lies that uphold an unequal, unjust status quo and advancing the truth: we are the economy and when we do better, the economy is stronger and more sustainable.
We’re here to say policymakers must take bold action, because the real danger is going too small and ending aid too soon.
As ProsperUS, we’re coming together to ensure government at all levels hear the demands of the people, meet the historic nature of the crises we face with bold ideas, and fearlessly commit the public resources needed to implement them.
