The Effective Governing Coalition (EGC) is a nonpartisan, nonprofit 501(c)4 that is committed to making Congress work better. We convene lawmakers, industry leaders, and policy experts to foster the kind of substantive, solutions-oriented dialogue that cuts through gridlock — and gets results.

Our work is focused on making government more efficient and accountable, reducing the cost burden on American families, and delivering tangible results for working people across the country.
