No New Non-Emergency Spending,

Just a Reallocation of Existing Resources

​

All of 1787’s non-emergency policies will be cost neutral for at least two years, then we will reevaluate. No new money is necessary… just a reallocation of existing resources.

​

Don’t worry! None of our important federal programs will suffer – they will just run much more efficiently Without a doubt, we can make serious headway in our national funding crisis – full stop – if we just stop wasting resources and get a bigger bang for our buck by taking a comprehensive, as opposed to compartmental, approach.

​

*The only exception to this would be 1787's new Family Leave policy. This policy will be funded through an additional payroll tax, with employers and employees each contributing 0.25 percent of wages. However, workers can opt-in or opt-out.
