The Progressive Policy Institute (PPI) is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization that serves as a public policy think tank in the United States. The Democratic Leadership Council (DLC) founded it in 1989.[1] The Washington Post has described it as "a centrist Democratic institution."[2]

Key people

[edit]

Its current president is Will Marshall, who writes on foreign policy, defense, national service, globalization, trade policy, and cultural issues. The organization's executive director is Lindsay Lewis.

Its chief economic strategist is Michael Mandel, who writes on innovation, growth, and the reduction of what he described as "regulatory accumulation."[3] Several former leading government officials have held senior positions or affiliations with the organization, including William Galston, Austan Goolsbee, Elaine Kamarck, Bruce Reed, Andrew Rotherham, Robert J. Shapiro, Paul Weinstein, and Ed Gresser.[4][5][6][7]

Center for New Liberalism

[edit]

In February 2020, the Neoliberal Project joined as a new initiative of the Progressive Policy Institute.[8] Their network comprises over eighty chapters across the world.[9] The national organization produces a podcast,[10] conference[11] and livestreamed events.[12] The Neoliberal Project also runs an annual competition to select the "Neoliberal Shill" of the year.[13][14] In June 2020, the Neoliberal Project was reorganized as project of the newly created Center for New Liberalism.[15]
