About

A nonpartisan institution for honest evidence

The American Empowerment Fund is a 501(c)(4) organization that studies where the country's health, housing, and benefit programs fall short of the people they were built for, publishes the evidence, and works with policymakers of any party to fix it.

Independence

Answerable to the record, not to a donor

We accept no funding from the industries whose programs and billing we study. What we raise supports research, publication, and the work of bringing findings to policymakers, journalists, and the public. Our only obligation is to get the evidence right.

01
Research
Gather public records and data, and verify what can be verified.
02
Publish
Release the analysis in full, sourced so anyone can check it.
03
Engage
Bring findings to the people positioned to act, across the aisle.
