Amidst speculation in some circles that the nation may be entering a new
Progressive era, the New
York experience offers a fascinating and cautionary
lesson on the state of political reform. New York is home to the most generous campaign
finance program in the country – and some of the least competitive elections.
What do the experiences of New
York and other cities teach us? What does a robust
reform agenda look like in the 21st century?
Come join the New America
Foundation for a discussion of political reform in urban America.
