THE 2003 PROGRESSIVE AGENDA

A BLUEPRINT FOR THE STATES

The 2003 Progressive Agenda, the nation’s only compilation of progressive state policy innovations, is now online!

Because state budget deficits are threatening progressive policies in almost every state, this year’s Progressive Agenda is filled with policy alternatives that require little or no state funding. The 2003 Progressive Agenda also includes model legislation that directly addresses state budget deficits.

Click on any of the links below to access user-friendly policy summaries and resource lists for 50 different state issues, and includes 53 samples of model legislation.
