With a closely divided government ahead, BPC experts comment on a few issues to be addressed in 2021 and beyond.

 

 

 

BPC's Latest Work

Election Day did not end with a decisive outcome. Counting the votes takes time, and close margins of victory in many states mean that we will be seeing some recounts to confirm the outcome. But not every recount is the same, and some aren’t even recounts. BPC Research Analyst Collier Fernekes explains what's happening in Georgia.

 

With the Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) and Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation (PEUC) programs expiring in December, BPC Research Analyst Mariette Aborn explains how the programs can be extended and modified.

 

In a recent virtual event hosted by BPC and the Heurich House Museum, panel member Jeff Alfaro, an immigrant who came to the United States at age 20 from the Philippines and started his own small business, expressed that gaining citizenship that allowed him to vote and have a voice in our electoral system was his biggest “American Dream.” BPC Immigration Fellow Sadikshya Nepal takes a look back at how immigrants are participating in U.S. politics.

The 2020 election makes clear that neither party has a governing mandate and meaningful solutions must attract broad-based, bipartisan support. During the week of December 7, BPC will present an agenda for bipartisan action during the Solutions Summit: Blueprint to Restore Economic Security for Working Families.
