The American Sustainable Business Council is a growing coalition of business networks committed to public policies that support a vibrant, just, and sustainable economy. The Council is dedicated to moving beyond the politics and practices of the past to identify the innovative solutions that will transform our economy and society. We are committed to ensuring that America's businesses and social enterprises will be a major driving force behind this transformation.
Today, the organizations (Partners) that have joined in this partnership represent over 100,000 businesses and social enterprises and more than 300,000 entrepreneurs, owners, executives, investors and business professionals, and other individuals.
ASBC promotes policy change by educating and informing the business community, policy makers, and the media about the business case for change, and by engaging the leaders of businesses and enterprises in building broad support for the policies America needs. We work on a range of policy areas, including: financial reform, health care, chemicals policy, climate change, and business taxes.
We believe that the policies that will lead us to a sustainable and just economy are also good for business and good for America. Making the right commitments and investments will produce more and better jobs, build strength in key technologies, and make the U.S. more independent and secure.
