SUMMARY

Getting to YES With the Middle Class argues why progressives should be talking about success and offers the elements of a success agenda for the middle class.

Progressives consider themselves to be the defenders and suitors of the middle class, but there’s a missing ingredient in the policies progressives now offer to the middle class.

This memo argues why progressives should be talking about success and offers the elements of a success agenda for the middle class.
