| Desc | In 2022, we expanded our core team of cross-partisan advisors to identify, evaluate, and execute on opportunities for democracy reform. We continue to lay the groundwork and provide support to catalyze reform campaigns aligned with our policy priorities and the vision of the Board. During the year, we sourced and worked with teams of consultants to assess the political and legal viability of campaigns in multiple states. In total, we identified over twenty states to invest further diligence and support in, all at varying stages of campaign development. | Desc |
