Moderate voices. Meaningful progress.

M.A.D: Moderate American Democrats brings together people who believe practical leadership, strong institutions, and principled compromise can move America forward.

Our purpose is progress

M.A.D: Moderate American Democrats is a New York-based think tank and growing community for like-minded moderates. We promote Democratic candidates, causes, and ideas grounded in opportunity, security, and respect for the institutions that hold our country together.

We believe progress is built through informed debate and practical action—not partisan extremes. From expanding health care and advancing gun safety to supporting clean energy, affordable housing, and protecting American institutions, we focus on policies that make a lasting difference.
