This year the Center for American Progress celebrates a decade of making a difference in the lives of Americans. We celebrate many achievements – from health care reform to ending the war in Iraq to development of a green economy. To commemorate our 10th anniversary, the Center will host a conference featuring high-level discussions of the critical issues of our time, with sessions on the gravest issues we face and bold ideas to tackle them.
