How Elected Officials Can Fight for Affordability for All

SiX, Groundwork Collaborative, and Local Progress Impact Lab have released “Affordability for All: An Agenda to Bring Down Costs for Working Families,” a resource recommending 10 specific policies that elected officials can pass to make people’s lives more affordable. Read the report here: https://mcusercontent.com/50c62ac7b40... In the wake of progressive victories like those of Zohran Mamdani in New York City, Katie Wilson in Seattle, and Mikie Sherrill in New Jersey who championed policies like rent freezes, utility bill freezes, and public grocery stores, it is not just necessary, but popular for elected officials to advocate for economic populist policies. According to new polling released alongside the report from Data for Progress, seven in ten voters – including an overwhelming majority of conservatives and independents – report that necessities like housing, groceries, utilities, and health care are getting less affordable for them. At least half of voters believe that their elected officials at all levels of government are not prioritizing affordability and 81% of voters report that they would be more likely to support a candidate working to make life more affordable for working families. Americans are consistently concerned with the economy and overwhelmingly say that inflation is getting worse for them.
