Since Memorial Day, Progressive Future has been rolling out our summer campaign.  We’re building staff here at our Denver national headquarters and across the Nation.  Over the next few weeks, we’ll be taking on Big Oil – arguing against subsidies to polluters making windfall profits, and for sensible investments in clean new energy sources to help Americans.  We’ll be advocating for solutions like mass transit, high-speed rail and Amtrak to provide commuters and travelers with affordable, quality alternatives to driving. 

In the process, we're going to build a group of progressives who can help call for real change this fall and beyond.
 
We'll be sending out frequent updates about our progress and posting videos, blogs and other messages from our staff in the field. So make sure you and your friends have signed up to get Progressive Future e-mails and make sure you check back frequently to hear about what's going on around the country.  Stay tuned.
