    Partners

In the tradition of common purpose that defines America at its best, More Perfect emerged from a growing cross-divide coalition of American leaders and institutions – including the founding alliance of the Partnership for American Democracy and dozens of other people and groups dedicated to the shared work of democratic renewal. If you'd like to inquire about joining the ground floor of this effort, too, please email partner@joinmoreperfect.us.

Participation in the More Perfect initiatives does not mean a partner embraces or works on every aspect of every goal.
