Dear Friend,
MassBudget produces high-quality research, clear and accurate data, and trusted policy analysis. And we make all of it available - for free - to everyone. We believe that this leads to more inclusive public debates, more voices being heard, and policy choices that better reflect the interests and values of everyone in our Commonwealth, especially low- and moderate-income people.
If you agree that this is important, please consider a donation to MassBudget today.
In recent months people across the nation have begun to focus on the harm caused by economic inequality. The problem is real, and there are real solutions. Of course, many are national in scope, but states also play a crucial role in expanding opportunity, and protecting the economic security of families. Economic strength that leads to widely-shared prosperity is built with things that states can provide:
- High quality education and training for everyone;
- Work supports like child care and health care that allow lower income parents to succeed in the workforce;
- Reliable infrastructure to transport goods, customers and workers;
- A fair and adequate tax system to pay for these effective investments
MassBudget's work - and people across the Commonwealth who use it - have been at the forefront of advancing the debate on these crucial issues.
When we help all of our people to participate effectively in our economy, we not only help those who are given new opportunities, but also our overall economy. In the words of the late Paul Wellstone, "We all do better when we all do better."
If you share MassBudget's vision for a more inclusive, effective democracy and economy, please click here to give generously today.
Thank you,
Noah Berger
President
