About Us

The rules of Congress are often arcane, and designed to exclude most people except for the long-time insiders. We’re working to change that.

Our work includes policy analysis, public education, technical assistance, and cross-issue partnerships to ensure communities that have been historically excluded can directly shape the policy decisions that impact their lives.  We also break down the government’s hardest-to-understand processes. For example, our “Unrig the Rules” project pulls back the curtain on the inner workings of our government by sharing accessible, educational content.

When national and grassroots organizations work together across issues, lawmakers and those in power must listen. The CPC Center provides the infrastructure necessary for organizations across issues to work together and advance a shared vision of what people-centered policies should look like through various convening spaces, including our Movement Table, our Foreign Policy Table, our Convening for a Pro Worker Future, and more.

The Congressional Progressive Caucus Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
