AVs have the potential to change transit in a way that empowers non-driving communities, reduces traffic fatalities, and shrinks our nation’s carbon footprint.

Every day, delivery services are connecting millions of Americans with products and services that they couldn’t otherwise access or afford. These services have made communities a better place to live.

We support new transportation modes that increase mobility and help consumers get where they’re going. Car-sharing apps, scooter services, and ride shares have all provided new, affordable transportation options for Americans, including many who live in transportation deserts.

We need to rethink how we label workers in our country. We should create a new category of employment to ensure flexible workers receive the pay they deserve and keep the hours they enjoy.

Crypto has provided the underbanked with a method to send and receive funds, and it’s allowed for decentralized borrowing and lending to generate wealth. Policymakers must enact a framework for crypto regulation that values competition, consumer protections, innovation, and environmentally responsible practices.

Fintech apps and products have exploded in popularity among consumers in part because they offer better services and lower fees. These products provide increased access and inclusion across the financial industry.

Chamber of Progress works with lawmakers to advance pro-competition, pro-innovation policies that lower costs, expand housing supply, and improve quality of life.

Closing the digital divide is one of the biggest equity issues of our time. We support federal investments in universal broadband that would connect all Americans.

We support national family leave policies and universal health care, and access to telemedicine and tele health services that expand access to care for underserved populations.

AI is reshaping the economy, and policy should enable progress—not slow it. Chamber of Progress works with lawmakers to advance pro-innovation, pro-competition AI governance that supports new entrants, economic growth, and shared global benefits.

Our nation’s antitrust laws should put consumers first, protecting them from anti-competitive behavior and higher prices. We oppose proposals that would harm consumers or break the services they enjoy.

Americans want social media platforms that are free from hate speech and dangerous misinformation. We support Section 230 and platforms’ rights under the First Amendment to build safe online communities.

One of the public’s top tech priorities is protecting online privacy. Policymakers should pass federal privacy legislation while making sure that the ad-supported Internet remains accessible to all.
