Overview
With a general support grant from the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, the Bipartisan Policy Center will advance its work to develop bipartisan solutions to America’s key policy challenges. Over the next two years, the center believes that there will be bipartisan opportunities to address our nation’s crumbling infrastructure, improve the tax code, and unleash innovation in medicine, clean energy, and entrepreneurship. There will also be a critical need for fact-based, constructive dialogue on divisive issues including immigration, climate change, and health policy.

Grants to this Grantee
for support of the Democracy Project and for the Healthy Congress Index
The Bipartisan Policy Center’s Democracy Project works to combine the best ideas from both parties to promote bipartisan relationship building and stronger institutions. With the support of the Hewlett Foundation, the Democracy Project will track and analyze congressional procedures and adherence to regular order through the quarterly Healthy Congress Index; widely publicize the index to lawmakers, their staff, and the public; and use the index as a tool for revitalizing an effective Congress. Grant funds also may be used for convenings and events related to strengthening the institution of Congress.
