Equitable Growth - U.S. Inequality Tracker

The Washington Center for Equitable Growth is a nonprofit, nonpartisan economic policy organization that connects economic evidence and policy to promote shared prosperity and growth.

We fund and conduct research on what drives growth and who shares in it, then put that evidence in front of the people writing policy.

When the evidence is clear about how inequality shapes the economy, policymakers can choose what actually works — for wages, for families and for long-term growth.

Our work depends on people who believe policy should follow the evidence. Give, partner, or join the network of scholars behind it.
