Once again, CLASP has been hard at work in 2022 advocating for public policies that support people with low incomes, advancing racial and social justice, and helping assure access to economic mobility and opportunity.
One of the many strategies we use is engaging with the news media. We’re pleased when journalists turn to our experts and resources for the stories and articles that help inform broader conversations on public policy. We culled through the hundreds of news articles, broadcast appearances, op-eds, etc. this year that drew on CLASP’s expertise. In no particular order, here are 10 notable examples:
