** Our New Website and a New(ish) Name
------------------------------------------------------------
The Neoliberal Project was founded in 2017 to advance liberal values. Since then, we have spread to over 80 chapters around the world, a podcast with millions of listens, and a social media reach of over 60 million impressions a month. Since 2020, we have been a part of the Progressive Policy Institute ([link removed]) , a storied Washington DC think tank that traces its roots back as the brain trust of the Bill Clinton administration.
In 2020, we launched the Center for New Liberalism (CNL) as a home for our more intellectual work. CNL has hosted members of Congress, published policy pieces, and hosted its very own conference ([link removed]) last March. Increasingly, CNL also became a way for us to reach a larger audience of electeds, activists, and other allies. As the work of CNL progressed, many of our chapters ([link removed]) came to identify as “New Liberals” as well.
Our New Website ([link removed])
So after nearly five years, we’ve made the decision to transition away from the “Neoliberal Project” moniker in favor of consolidating our efforts under the banner of the Center for New Liberalism ([link removed]) . We made this decision for several reasons. Having two names and two websites was cumbersome and confusing. Additionally, as we grow we want the focus to be our mission — promoting and defending liberalism during an age where it is under attack. That mission is too important to be distracted by arguments over nomenclature. “New Liberalism” and “New Liberals” will still draw some questions, but broadly we believe this shift presents an opportunity to define our own values and agenda divorced from preconceptions. However, we don’t have plans at this time to change the name of the Twitter ([link removed]) , Reddit ([link removed]) , or podcast ([link removed]) .
This shift also includes several improvements to the website:
* We have created a “What We Believe” section ([link removed]) on our website. While we have always listed these values on our membership card, the new website is an opportunity to explore our values in further depth and tie it in with our work.
* Whenever a chapter schedules an event, you can find that event on the chapter’s page. If that chapter has a Twitter or a website of its own, you’ll find it on that page too.
* A new process – and requirements – for starting a chapter ([link removed])
* Better categorization of our output, such as our public statements ([link removed]) ,essays and op-eds ([link removed]) , and podcasts ([link removed])
* An aesthetic redesign to make the website look and feel better

Our hope is that this new website can make it easier to find our work, make it easier to join your local chapter, and make us more effective in promoting liberalism in your community and beyond. If you have ideas for further site changes – or think there are issues or bugs with the new changes – email us (mailto:
[email protected]) and we’ll see what we can do.
To a more liberal tomorrow –
Colin, Jeremiah, and Markose
