PolicyLink is a research and action institute working to advance a nation that governs for all.
The United States was founded on the aspirations of liberty, equality, and justice, but for too many, those promises remain unfulfilled.
We can build that future: one where government is as strong and caring as our communities, listens and acts on real needs, protects those at greatest risk. Removes barriers so opportunity is real, not just promised.
We’ve already begun weaving that net. Now let’s shape it into something greater: a nation that holds us all, lifts us all, and clears the way for every one of us to rise.
In every generation, there comes a moment when we must decide what kind of nation we will be.
At , we are reminded that while institutions will do what they do, we have the power to do what we must: to care for our communities, to lead with courage, and continue advancing a future where our institutions are compelled to ensure that all people can thrive.
As PolicyLink’s CEO, .mcafee shared at the forum: our ancestors paid the price for us to be here, and we honor them by being strong enough, bold enough, and determined enough to do the work this moment demands.
We will not be defeated, and we will not stop until all is truly the foundation of our democracy.

As we approach the end of the year, we’re reminded of the importance of pausing, replenishing, and grounding ourselves in the work of building a just and flourishing society. At PolicyLink, we believe in creating space for reflection and renewal as part of the long arc toward designing a nation where all can thrive.
As we prepare for our annual Winter Reset, starting December 25th, and as our CEO Dr. Michael McAfee steps away for a sabbatical, we’re inspired by the leadership he models: embracing rest as an essential part of sustaining this lifetime work. These moments of pause are not just acts of self-care but acts of commitment to the movement—a chance to fortify ourselves for the transformative challenges ahead.
In the months ahead, we’ll be guided by the steady leadership of our President Ashleigh Gardere, whose vision will continue to anchor and inspire our collective journey. Together, we remain focused on the unfinished business of democracy, building a future worthy of all of us.
As you reflect on your own certainties and aspirations, remember this: you are a founder of a nation yet to be birthed. Hold steady, embrace rest when needed, and return ready to move with clarity and conviction. Together, we will create a society where everyone can flourish.
See you in 2025 and enjoy a few pictures from some of our happy moments throughout the year. 🥳✨
On December 17, Congresswoman Lisa Blunt Rochester and Congresswoman Maxine Waters introduced the Know Who Owns Your Home Act. PolicyLink is excited to support this necessary legislation, which would direct the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to study the need for and feasibility of a national residential rental registry. PolicyLink thanks the Congressmembers for their leadership.
