Since 1998, the Economic Opportunity Institute has been in the fight for economic justice through progressive policies that reach every corner of our state. Their mission is to equip the public and public decision-makers with the policy research and practical tools they need to embed the values of fairness, care, and opportunity into the foundations of our state’s economy — and thereby support thriving people and communities across the state. Their successes include landmark policies like Paid Family and Medical Leave, the Equal Pay and Opportunity Act, Paid Sick & Safe leave, and more.
