About

Demos is a NON-partisan public policy research and advocacy organization founded in 2000. Headquartered in new YORK city, demos works with advocates and policymakers around the country in pursuit of three over-reaching commitments: achieving a true democracy by reducing the role of money in politics and guaranteeing the freedom to vote; creating pathways to ensure a diverse, expanded middle class in a new, sustainable economy; and transforming the public narrative to evaluate the values of community and racial equity.
