The [[1]] Economic Security Project

Our plan is as bold as it is effective: give people cash, no strings attached. This has been proven to work, time and again. During the height of the pandemic, millions of families received direct cash payments from the federal government, with overwhelmingly positive results. These direct cash payments provided breathing room when the situation was most dire, affording people the stability and comfort of knowing they could cover bills and groceries while the job market recovered.

But stressful times are not unique to this pandemic, and a guaranteed income has been proven to work even outside such extraordinary conditions. Two groundbreaking programs supported by the Economic Security Project demonstrate exactly that.
