The States Project connects the importance of state legislatures to every aspect of our lives and brings together communities to help build a healthy, sustainable, and prosperous future for all.
Our electoral work focuses on winning governing majorities in the states by making state legislative campaigns more effective and better-funded. Our policy work provides nonpartisan tools and resources that connect a diverse community of state lawmakers committed to improving lives for the people they serve.
When it comes to defending our democracy, protecting personal freedoms, and improving people’s day-to-day lives, we’re the only national organization hyper-focused on both winning state legislative power and helping state lawmakers govern effectively.
Our goal is not just to win elections for winning sake.
It’s to achieve the American Promise that all people are created equal with the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness — and that government is formed by the people to secure those rights.

By securing effective government, personal freedom, fair markets, and representative democracy we can achieve the following ambitious, measurable goals in all 50 states for all Americans.

Equal opportunity is a core American value – every person must have the right to the pursuit of happiness. When opportunity is limited for some, everyone’s health, pocketbooks, and freedom suffer.

Natural disasters and eroding infrastructure are a huge burden on families and communities, from longer commutes to increasingly destructive storms, floods, and fires. State lawmakers can improve infrastructure and cut costs for families with:
The cost of dirty air and water is too high — in dollars and, ultimately, lives. Clean air, water, and energy save lives, dollars, and good jobs. State lawmakers can protect the water we drink and the air we breathe with clear goals:
