Task Forces
The New Democrat Coalition has seven policy task forces which are led by New Dem issue area experts in order to develop policies to help Americans get ahead in a changing economy and make America more secure. The task forces are charged with meeting with stakeholders and developing policy positions for the Coalition to advance in both the near term and long term. The Coalition will continue to assess the policy challenges that lie ahead and create additional task forces as needed.
