Petition: It's Time to FixUS - If Not Now, When?
Our polarized governing environment has put increasing pressure on businesses to step up and help solve a range of societal problems. At the same time many CEOs have acknowledged that a corporation’s purpose must go beyond shareholder value and include concern for employees, consumers, and communities. FixUS hosted an online discussion on how businesses can engage its stakeholders, and published an essay by experts in corporate governance and politics discussing how businesses can build stakeholder engagement into their business practices. Read the essay.

FixUS-Ipsos: America’s Values, Goals, and Aspirations
FixUS commissioned a poll examining Americans’ underlying values and goals for themselves and their country. The purpose of the poll was to serve as a jumping off point for a citizen-led engagement effort intended to facilitate a better understanding of commonalities we can build upon. We asked respondents to look beyond the current crises we face with the hope of beginning to build a foundation for restoring a shared sense of purpose in these divided times.
