THE 2004 PROGRESSIVE AGENDA

Progressive Solutions Built on American Values

The 2004 Progressive Agenda, the nation’s only compilation of progressive state policy innovations, is now online!

While progressive policy has been virtually exiled from Washington, D.C., it is alive and well in state capitals. 2003 saw a string of proactive victories in the states on a wide range of economic and social issues. For progressives, the policies of tomorrow are developing in the states today.

Progressive Solutions Built on American Values, the fourth edition in CPA’s Progressive Agenda series, lays out more than 100 of the most innovative solutions being debated and enacted in the states.
