Progressive Challenge For 2010

Co-directors Robert Borosage and Roger Hickey look back at the progressive movement in 2009 and discuss what it will take to win the political challenges of 2010. They argue that the past year has shown the necessity of an independent progressive movement to hold President Obama to his promises and to hold Congress accountable to the people. The political agenda they lay out for 2010 includes strengthening health care reform, keeping the economic recovery and job production on track, financial reform and protecting the social safety net.
