The American Sustainable Business Network (ASBN) works with its
members to develop a vision and policy framework for a
sustainable market-based economy. A truly sustainable economy
requires the responsible stewardship of all types of
capital—social, financial, intellectual, and natural. All of
these must be tended to make the economy productive, resilient,
competitive, and equitable for businesses and their
communities.
ASBN engages our broad network of business organizations,
companies and investors through policy, advocacy, and government
affairs (PAG) actions through three core portfolios: Inclusive Economy, Business for Democracy, and Climate, Energy, and
Environment.
Inclusive Economy
ASBN is committed to addressing the systemic inequities in
America’s economy and society and to hold policy makers
accountable to the promise of equal justice and
opportunity.
Business for Democracy
ASBN has long championed inclusivity and equity as
enduring principles on which a healthy economy is founded.
And a functioning free and fair democracy is an
incomparable tool to achieving such a landscape. We believe
bold changes must be made to protect American democracy, and
businesses can lead the way.
Climate, Energy, and Environment
Climate change poses an existential threat to humanity,
threatening financial security, our supply chains, modern
infrastructure systems and the environment. ASBN believes that
developing policy approaches that are championed by strong
business representation and messaging is crucial in order to
secure a positive and equitable climate future.
