Working to deliver American prosperity from the ground up
ABUNDANT AMERICA
There are local leaders in every American place that know what outcomes their communities need
Abundant America works with local elected leaders and civic organizations to build an abundant America from the ground up. We believe there are local leaders in every American place who know what outcomes their communities need most. We work with those leaders to map opportunities to deliver tangible local outcomes into a Plan for Local Abundance.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
Economic Abundance:
Affordability, technology and growth to win the future
Build more of what people need
Regulatory and zoning reform to unlock housing, energy, healthcare, and infrastructure, so America can produce at scale and prices fall through real supply.
Foster innovation, technology, healthy competition
Make it easier to start and grow businesses, and enforce antitrust so gatekeepers can’t manufacture scarcity or block prosperity through predatory tactics.
Civic Abundance:
Spend more of our public money at the local level
Local self-government that people can feel and trust
Participatory budgeting, decentralized programs, civic engagement pathways, and standing citizen assemblies/town halls to set priorities, deliberate tradeoffs, and legitimize public action.
Limited but effective government
Push resources, authority, and capacity down to states, counties, and towns so decisions match the scale of life. Maintain a short list of essential federal priorities—and execute them well.
Social Abundance:
Strong communities, strong families, rooted in place
Strong communities as the foundation of human flourishing
Lower cost, more productive opportunity so people have a stable foundation for families and associations—not just survival in isolation.
Build meaningful relationships
Invest in public commons, service pathways, and “third places,” strengthen the associations that cultivate connection—schools, unions/guilds, faith congregations, service corps, neighborhood groups.
An Abundant America starts with local leadership
We work with elected leaders to make abundance practical and tangible in every community in America.
LEARN FROM LOCAL LEADERS
1/ Contribute your best ideas for needed outcomes in your community
We convene state legislators, mayors, and civic leaders to answer one question: "What are the bipartisan priorities you couldn't get funded due to scarcity politics?"
PLAN FOR LOCAL ABUNDANCE
2/ Work together to draft a Plan for Local Abundance
We map these widely agreed upon priorities and projects across the 3-As framework of economic, civic and social abundance — creating a list of unfunded, high-impact local outcomes (e.g., a community pool, a local clinic, neighborhood speed bumps, a new community athletic facility).
