In policy organizing, we often define the win based on the outcome of a bill or ballot measure, with little regard for process. But when we think longer term about building real grassroots power, success is measured differently. In this episode, we talk with veteran power-building policy strategist Dana Laurent from the Ballot Initiative Strategy Center about a common mistake in progressive policy organizing that leaves communities most affected out of the conversation. Tune in and learn about  principles and resources to help us redefine the wins for an indisposable future.
