The NewDEAL is a network of pro-growth progressive state and local elected officials, which includes school board members, councilmembers, county executives, mayors, state legislators, and statewide leaders.
Leaders from over thirty-six states discussed ways the Biden-Harris Administration is making historic investments in their communities through the American Rescue Plan, Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, Inflation Reduction Act, and the CHIPS and Science Act.
