Our Mission
Across the country, voters rejected political extremes on both sides of the aisle in favor of leaders who touted bipartisan, common-sense solutions. But the money and incentives in politics still push lawmakers away from what voters want and need toward partisan gridlock that serves a few, leaving big problems unsolved.
To boldly transform a broken political system, a group of advocates who helped pass the most significant federal bipartisan criminal justice reform legislation in a generation created the Network, to encourage lawmakers from all political backgrounds to work together on data-driven legislative solutions.
