Our Mission
The powerful spend billions selling us their side of the story. We aren’t buying it anymore.
More Perfect Union is a nonprofit education, advocacy, and journalism organization with a mission to build power for the working class. We tell the stories of working class Americans by covering politics, policy, labor, business, and economics news through a class lens. We pair our reporting with activism to win policy fights that support families and the working class.
The organization is made up of More Perfect Union Action (EIN: 85-3190605), a 501(c)(4) organization that covers policy fights, electoral stories, and ballot initiatives to empower the working class within the political process and More Perfect Union Foundation (EIN: 85-3189807), a 501(c)(3) organization that creates educational content, publishes investigative reports on corporate accountability, and advocates for working class issues.
