------------------------------------------------------------
For today’s Economic Democracy Weekly, the first of 2025, we begin with a set of articles that highlight advocates’ efforts to create publicly owned banks to advance economic justice and support local community economic development. First, from New York state ([link removed]) , a campaign in Rochester gains momentum. Next, from California ([link removed]) , an account of how a century-old public bank in North Dakota has inspired public banking campaigns across the Golden State.

Lastly, from a webinar last fall, a speaker explains the value to communities of experimentation to get
