ABOUT FUTURE CAUCUS

Future Caucus Mission

Future Caucus has an audacious mission: activate young leaders to bridge the partisan divide and build a more functional democracy. We are a national, nonpartisan organization dedicated to supporting the next generation of elected leaders. Our focus is on providing resources, networking, and capacity-building opportunities for policymakers to forge productive partnerships on critical national issues.

Congressional Future Caucus

In 2013, Future Caucus organized the nation’s first and only caucus for young members of Congress, the Congressional Future Caucus. This initiative aimed to build coalitions on future-oriented challenges. We extended this model into more than 33 state legislatures, each with a Future Caucus consisting of young, high-potential legislators. Currently, we engage with over 1,800 young legislators nationwide. Learn more at www.futurecaucus.org.
