The UBI Approach

We Recognize the New Power Centers

The caucuses representing both parties bases make up a very powerful bloc of Congress. The partners of United by Interest understand that the fastest way to successfully whip a vote is to start with the members who represent the bases of both parties and build towards the center, not the other way around.
