100 Pilots: Guaranteed Income Achieves Historic Milestone

We've just hit a milestone of 100 guaranteed income pilots announced nationwide.

In 2017, Economic Security Project helped launch two big pilots in Stockton, CA and Jackson, MS. We open-sourced the playbook and invited others to join the movement. To go from a distant dream to such a large number of pilots did not happen overnight, it took the dedicated work of people committed to this vision. And the ultimate goal – passing guaranteed income policies – is happening alongside these pilots.

Economic Security Project advocates for ideas that build economic power for all Americans. We legitimize bold ideas by supporting cutting edge research and elevating champions, win concrete policy victories for the communities that need to see change now, and provoke the conventional wisdom to shift what’s considered possible. Our team of academics, organizers, practitioners and culture makers disburse grants, run issue campaigns, develop creative interventions and research products, and convene to encourage investment and action from others.
