Advancing policies that strengthen America’s economy and democracy
Maintaining a check on power and responding to threats against the rule of law

How Leadership Now Has Impact - Informing and educating our members on the key threats and opportunities facing democracy is one of our primary areas of impact. Additionally, collaboration with academics, thought-leaders, and leading nonprofits enables members to have impact through their:

Influence: As trusted leaders in their businesses, communities, and networks, members champion democracy priorities and engage others to do the same.
Expertise: Utilizing their business acumen, our members advance effective solutions to complex democracy issues.
Investment: Members invested more than $40M in pro-democracy candidates and organizations in the 2023-2024 cycle.
