Better Markets … a financial system that too often fails to support the real productive economy and is too often focused on wealth extraction rather than wealth creation.

Hi Mike,As the dust settles from the 2024 election, one thing is clear: the economy isn’t working for the vast majority of Americans, too many of whom continue to struggle to make ends meet. One of the key reasons for that is a financial system that too often fails to support the real productive economy and is too often focused on wealth extraction rather than wealth creation. At Better Markets, we know that regardless of who holds office, the battle for financial reform and economic justice must continue—unwavering and with renewed focus—to protect the economy, investors, consumers, and all hardworking Americans.

Thanks to your support, Better Markets has remained a leading voice for policies that push the financial system and industry to promote and prioritize the economic interests of Main Street Americans. We ensure that the voices of all Americans are heard in the halls of power all across Washington and that policymakers fully understand the stakes for working families. In 2024 alone, we have worked tirelessly to:

  • Champion stronger protections to shield American financial consumers and investors from financial predators, lawbreakers, and financial instability.
  • Hold Wall Street’s biggest financial companies accountable, challenging their practices that put profits before people.
  • Advocate for policy changes that promote real, genuine, and fair economic opportunity while highlighting the corrupting influence of special interest money in our political system.
  • Partner with allies across the nation to ensure the financial system works for all, not just the wealthiest few.
But our work is far from done. The stakes for our economy, financial system, and democracy itself are higher than ever, and we need to be stronger than ever to meet the challenges ahead.As we look to 2025, we must remain independent, relentless, and ready to tackle the big challenges that lie ahead. That’s where your continued support comes in. Your year-end contribution will enable us to build on the progress we’ve made and continue our push for an economy and financial system that benefits everyone – not just the already wealthy and well-connected.
Please consider making a donation before December 31 to allow us to continue representing you throughout the policy making process in 2025 and beyond. Together, we can keep fighting to create an economy that works for all Americans.\
