The Progressive is a bold voice for peace, social justice, and the common good. Its bedrock values are nonviolence and freedom of speech. The Progressive presents voices of dissent and voices that are under-represented and historically marginalized in the mainstream, with a goal of championing grassroots progressive politics. 

We believe in standing against militarism and the concentration of power in corporate hands. The Progressive champions the empowerment of the citizenry, civil liberties, human rights, a preserved environment, and a reinvigorated democracy. 

First published on January 9, 1909, by Senator Robert M. La Follette Sr. of Wisconsin as La Follette’s Weekly, the magazine has a formidable history and clear vision for the future.

The Progressive, Inc., is an educational 501(c)3 nonprofit, also runs the Public School Shakedown and Progressive Media Project.
