Dear John,
For decades, the American people have expressed deep frustration with the economy as it is, and with what it has failed to offer us: Economic security, defined not just as the ability to make ends meet, but as a foundation that allows us to live the lives we want. Agency in the most important economic choices of our lives—from where to live, to when we can start a family or business, to how we can care for our loved ones. Power in our workplace and in our politics.

Fueled by that frustration, many have lost faith in our institutions and in democracy as a system—a vacuum that authoritarian forces are always willing to fill. Our vital task in the coming years is to prove that democracy can deliver, better and more quickly than any alternative.

This week, the Roosevelt Institute released Restoring Economic Democracy: Progressive Ideas for Stability and Prosperity ([link removed]) , an essay collection bringing together great minds from a range of disciplines to imagine how democracy can better deliver the economy Americans need and want, and take today’s important conversations to new places.

On May 14, three of the authors—Senator Chris Murphy, Roosevelt Institute President and CEO Elizabeth Wilkins, and Roosevelt Institute Fellow and journalist Osita Nwanevu—will join Roosevelt Forward for an invigorating discussion on how the Left can successfully advocate for bold ideas that shape the innovative and inclusive economy we need to ensure a good and fulfilling life for all Americans. At a time when our government and economy have been thrown into chaos, this conversation is more vital than ever.

We hope to see you there.
