SOCIAL POLICY AND POLITICSIN 2020, THE SOCIAL POLICY AND POLITICS PROGRAM FOCUSED ON 1) ANSWERING WHAT A COALITION TO DEFEAT POPULISM MUST LOOK LIKE, 2) OFFERING A COMPREHENSIVE FEDERAL COLLEGE QUALITY AGENDA THAT SHIFTS FOCUS FROM COST TO VALUE AMONG POLICYMAKERS, THE PRESS, AND OTHER INFLUENCERS AND 3) ADDRESSING THREATS ON CONTENTIOUS SOCIAL ISSUES AND ASSISTING POLICYMAKERS IN TALKING ABOUT THESE ISSUES IN A WAY THAT HAS BROAD APPEAL. WHAT A COALITION DEFEATING POPULISM LOOKS LIKE: OUR POLITICS TEAM WORKED TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION BY:UTILIZING CATALIST VOTER FILE DATA AND OTHER ELECTORAL DATA SOURCES TO DRAFT REPORTS ANALYZING AND EXPLAINING THE AMERICAN ELECTORATE AND DIFFERENCES ACROSS STATES AND DISTRICTS; CONDUCTING QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE PUBLIC OPINION RESEARCH TO BETTER UNDERSTAND WHAT CRITICAL SUBURBAN VOTERS PRIORITIZE, HOW THEY THINK ABOUT CURRENT ISSUES UNDER DISCUSSION IN WASHINGTON, AND WHAT THEY WANT FROM CANDIDATES AND POLICYMAKERS; AND TRACKING HOW POPULIST CANDIDATES PERFORM COMPARED TO THOSE CARRYING A MORE MAINSTREAM AGENDA. THIS MAKES THE CASE THAT MAINSTREAM IDEAS HAVE BROADER APPEAL.SHIFTING THE FOCUS IN HIGHER EDUCATION FROM COST TO VALUE: OUR EDUCATION TEAM WORKED TO BUILD THE ADVOCACY AND POLICY INFRASTRUCTURE TO PUSH FOR ACTIONABLE POLICY SOLUTIONS THAT HELP STUDENTS AND TAXPAYERS GET A GREATER RETURN ON THEIR HIGHER EDUCATION INVESTMENT AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL. OUR WORK ENSURED THAT FEDERAL POLICYMAKERS KNOW THEY CANNOT ADDRESS THE MYRIAD OF PROBLEMS IN OUR HIGHER EDUCATION SYSTEM WITHOUT TAKING SIGNIFICANT STEPS TO IMPROVE QUALITY, ACCOUNTABILITY, AND VALUE. THIS INCLUDED:CONDUCTING PUBLIC OPINION RESEARCH TO UNDERSTAND HOW AMERICANS THINK ABOUT QUALITY IN THE HIGHER EDUCATION CONTEXT AND DEMONSTRATE THE BROAD SUPPORT FOR INCREASED ACCOUNTABILITY IN OUR HIGHER EDUCATION SYSTEM; PRODUCING EASY-TO-UNDERSTAND TRANSLATORS, INFOGRAPHICS, VIDEOS, AND REPORTS ANALYZING PUBLICLY AVAILABLE DATA ABOUT STUDENT OUTCOMES IN HIGHER EDUCATION, CALLING ATTENTION TO THE NEED TO IMPROVE THOSE OUTCOMES AND INCREASE ACCOUNTABILITY IN HIGHER EDUCATION; AND HOSTING VIRTUAL EVENTS AND DEPLOYING DIGITAL MEDIA CAMPAIGNS TO DEMYSTIFY COMPLICATED TOPICS IN HIGHER EDUCATION AND HIGHLIGHT THE NEED FOR NEW POLICY SOLUTIONS THAT INCENTIVIZE HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS TO FOCUS ON IMPROVING STUDENT OUTCOMES.

ECONOMICS PROGRAM IN 2020, OUR ECONOMIC PROGRAM FOCUSED ON TWO CORE AREAS: 1) DEVELOPING AN AGENDA TO RESCUE THE ECONOMY AND US HEALTH CARE SYSTEM IN RESPONSE TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, AND 2) ADVANCING A CASE FOR A NEW CONTRACT ON WORK. COVID-19 RECOVERY: AS THE PANDEMIC AND SUBSEQUENT ECONOMIC RECESSION SWEPT ACROSS THE NATION, OUR TEAM MOVED QUICKLY TO UNPACK THE TOLL THE CRISIS WAS HAVING ON THE ECONOMY AS WELL AS DEVELOP A ROBUST AGENDA FOR RECOVERY. OUR WORK INCLUDED: DEVELOPING REGULAR BLOGS THAT ANALYZED ECONOMIC TRENDS TO HELP THE POLICYMAKING COMMUNITY UNDERSTAND THE QUICKLY EVOLVING COVID-19 CRISIS; DESIGNING AN INITIAL FOUR-PART ECONOMIC RESCUE AGENDA THAT DETAILED HOW TO SAVE AMERICAN WORKERS, EMPLOYERS, STATE/LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, AND THE HEALTH CARE SYSTEM; AND CRAFTING A SUBSEQUENT ECONOMIC RESCUE AGENDA OUTLINING 21 KEY AREAS TO ADDRESS TO BOLSTER THE ECONOMY IN 2021.A NEW CONTRACT ON WORK: WE'VE HAD TWO ONCE-IN-A-CENTURY ECONOMIC SHOCKS IN THE LAST 12 YEARS THAT LEVELED THE COUNTRY AND PUT TENS OF MILLIONS OF AMERICANS AT THE BRINK OF RUIN. THESE SHOCKS ALSO LAID BARE WHAT WAS ALREADY APPARENT DURING BETTER TIMES: WE HAVE TWO ECONOMIES IN AMERICA - ONE THAT SUFFICIENTLY REWARDS WORK AND ANOTHER WHERE THE BOND BETWEEN WORK AND A GOOD LIFE HAS GROWN TENUOUS. NONE OF THIS IS ACCIDENTAL OR INEVITABLE; MUCH OF IT IS THE CONSEQUENCE OF A 21ST CENTURY ECONOMY RELYING ON A 20TH CENTURY CONTRACT ON WORK. IN RESPONSE, OUR TEAM RESEARCHED AND ANALYZED WHAT AMERICANS GET FROM WORK - WAGES AND SALARIES, HEALTH CARE, RETIREMENT CONTRIBUTIONS, SKILL ACQUISITION, PAID FAMILY LEAVE, CHILD CARE, AND MORE - AND STARTED TO DEVELOP A DETAILED POLICY AGENDA. WORK INCLUDED: DEVELOPING A COMPREHENSIVE CRITIQUE OF THE CURRENT CONTRACT ON WORK AND DESCRIBING HOW AND WHY IT IS FAILING TO PROVIDE A PATH TO PROSPERITY AND SECURITY FOR MOST AMERICANS; BUILDING POLICIES THAT MODERNIZE THE CONTRACT ON WORK, INCLUDING IDEAS BOOSTING WAGES AND KEEPING WORKERS EMPLOYED DURING DOWNTURNS; AND CONVENING POLICY EXPERTS TO DISCUSS ECONOMIC TRENDS AND STRATEGIES TO CREATE A MODERN CONTRACT ON WORK.
