From the Editor
As summer winds down and Congress returns from recess, I’m reminded of how much we’ve accomplished over the past 9 months and excited for what’s still in store this year.
This success is a perfect example of how strong voices equipped with the right data and effective tools can effect change, even in a tough political climate. That’s why we’re excited to announce the launch of our new Advocacy Center, with tools and resources you can use to further your advocacy efforts while helping to protect and expand opportunities throughout the nation.
After reading this newsletter, I think you’ll be just as impressed as I am by the ways in which our Community rallies together in service of our shared mission.
Thank you for your service to the Prosperity Now Community.
Sincerely,
Kristin Lawton
Senior Director of Communications
