About Working Group on Extreme Inequality
http://extremeinequality.org/
The Working Group on Extreme Inequality began coming together in 2007. Many of the organizations involved in the Working Group had, over the years, been active in organizing against poverty and economic insecurity. That effort had helped us understand that the fight against inequality, to make significant headway, has to both raise the floor and challenge the concentrated wealth and power that increasingly sit at the top of our economic ladder.
Our Working Group is a coalition-in-formation. Based at the Institute for Policy Studies, were reaching out to different constituencies, generating educational materials, and promoting public policies to slim grand accumulations of private wealth.

Mobilization. Were engaging labor, religious, civic, and business groups concerned about poverty and unequal opportunity in dialogue about the importance of confronting the dangers that concentrated wealth and power increasingly engender.Education. Were talking with the wider public about these dangers — and the need for public policies that encourage the dispersal of wealth. Through research, reports, publications, media work, public forums, and popular education workshops, were reaching broad and diverse audiences.
Advocacy. Were building support for public policies that can address the concentration of wealth and, at the same time, raise badly needed revenue for social investments that foster real economic opportunity. We host legislative forums, provide support for Congressional hearings, and publish fact sheets and other informational materials.
