A Crisis of Confidence | Blog | Andrew Yang

1 week ago | andrewyang.com | Andrew Yang

What a time in American life. Our President initiates a trade war, the markets tremble, and then he pulls back on most of it. But the damage is done. Consumer confidence is plummeting. Tourism is down. The appetite for dollars and American debt is shaky. Companies are scaling back. Credit card delinquencies are rising. The probability of a recession has spiked.

Among the most likely are: Newsom; Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker; Maryland's Gov. Wes Moore; Michigan's Gov. Gretchen Whitmer; Buttigieg; Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro; Colorado Gov. Jared Polis; Rep. Ro Khanna of California; Minnesota's Sen. Amy Klobuchar; Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz; Former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel; Murphy; Arizona Sen. Ruben Gallego; AOC; and probably a dozen more we haven't heard of.
One Key Way Democrats Can Start to Get Their Act Together

Who leads the Democratic Party? No one knows, and that void is forestalling any attempt to have a meaningful conversation about the future of the party. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) are drawing huge crowds, Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) and Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) are staking out a moderate message, Gov. Gavin Newsom, Democrat of California is podcasting, and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is staving off a mutiny.
Confidence Men | Blog | Andrew Yang

Who among us hasn’t mistakenly texted someone? Of course, we’re not the National Security Advisor adding a national journalist to a military thread. What’s weird is I’ve met or know some of the people at the center of this story. A group of principals want to communicate with each other in a direct, personal and convenient way and the government doesn’t maintain a texting service that is certified for classified information.

Why can’t we have nice things? Why are we heading more toward Mad Max than, say, Star Trek or the Jetsons? This might be the most important question of our time. There have been a number of books asking versions of this question recently. From Jen Pahlka to Yoni Appelbaum and Marc Dunkelman, a number of people are tackling why we haven’t been making big strides in areas like housing or climate change or delivery of government services.
2025 AGM: Building shareholder trust, protecting corporate reputation through stakeholder-centered communication

1 month ago | koreatimes.co.kr | Andrew Yang

By Andrew YangThe 2025 annual general meeting (AGM) season is fast approaching and with the recent passage of amendments to the Commercial Act in the National Assembly, interest and debate surrounding the strengthening of shareholder rights have intensified. Consequently, movements for shareholders to directly participate in decision-making and actively voice their opinions on corporate policies and governance are expected to become more vigorous.
Why Nothing Works | Blog | Andrew Yang

When I was running for President, many were dubious about government’s ability to solve big problems. Why can’t we get big things done anymore? There have been a number of thinkers who have tackled this question, including Jen Pahlka (bureaucratic rules), Yoni Appelbaum (zoning laws), and now Marc Dunkelman, whom I interview on the podcast this week.
A War of Our Own | Blog | Andrew Yang

“I didn’t think Trump would actually implement tariffs; I thought it was a negotiating tactic.”I’ve seen this sentiment aired a hundred times both publicly and privately. It has been incredibly frustrating watching Trump launch a trade war. His tariffs are going to be vastly destructive and will raise prices for consumers and manufacturers alike. Agricultural states and the Midwest are going to be hit particularly hard, but every American will feel the pinch when they head to the store.
Are Americans Stuck? | Blog | Andrew Yang

The answer is almost certainly ‘Yes,’ if not in the way that you think. Back in 2020 I had a policy called ‘Get Americans Moving Again.’ It was meant to address the fact that Americans were relocating for new opportunities less frequently than in times past. Yoni Appelbaum, the author of ‘Stuck: How the Privileged and the Propertied Broke the Engine of American Opportunity,’ believes this is one of the biggest things holding back American prosperity.
Back to School | Blog | Andrew Yang

Hello, I hope that your weekend is going well this Presidents Day. I celebrate this holiday every year by putting on a colonial-era George Washington wig. I was invited to speak at my alma mater, Brown University, last week. It was my first time on campus since I ran for President. It was a lot of fun. I’ve spoken at over a dozen universities these past several years, but at Brown there was a sense of camaraderie and pride. The students filled the auditorium and dozens were turned away.
