A broad progressive tradition

The Progressive Caucus brings together organizations and movements that do not all use the same ideological label, but share a commitment to shifting political and economic power toward working people, expanding democratic rights, and building universal public institutions.

Healthcare, education, housing, reproductive freedom, civil rights, and social protections as public commitments.
Democratic power
