“At the core [Economic Security Project]’s ‘ideas advocacy’ approach is a critique of the economic status quo that still embraces capitalism but sees overweening corporate power as an anticompetitive detriment to the responsive markets that might otherwise keep the cost of living affordable for everyday Americans. Public options, in this sense, are positioned as a help rather than a hindrance to the operation of local markets for goods and services that can keep prices in check.” 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 #federalgrants #federalfunds #braidedfunds #economicjustice #publicfunding

If we can use taxes—public dollars—to fund libraries, K-to-12 education, and the USPS, why stop there? Public options play a major role in helping all communities increase access to vital goods and services, which is why I’m so proud of the groundbreaking work that Marguerite Casey Foundation Public Dollars for Public Good grant recipient Economic Security Project is leading. From public options for insulin production to grocery stores to our power grids and more we’re seeing a renewed interest nationally in public options for all of the things we need to live a good life.
