Wheels of Progress BOF

Wheels of Progress is a community of politically engaged moderates and progressives who are committed to constructively addressing public policy at every level of government. By establishing and maintaining relationships with like-minded SKPs, we facilitate personal meetings among members. We strive to broaden our understanding of issues, policies, and candidates for public office. We seek ways to strengthen our communities, our nation, and our world by using our influence to bring about positive change.

We use a “secret” Facebook group [https://www.facebook.com/groups/1623546044433668/] to connect with each other, and we meet together wherever and whenever more than one of us is around. To join, send your SKP number to Larry Butler at techcfo@yahoo.com. There is no charge for membership.

During the Great Depression, a progressive administration employed thousands of artists, sculptors, writers, craftsmen, and laborers. This policy arguably helped boost the economy, and above all it left a tangible legacy of public goods that we enjoy more than eighty years later. Nothing symbolizes this rational and progressive policy better than the public art that still adorns our post offices, schools, and other public buildings throughout the nation.
