The Center for Progressive Reform consists of a full-time staff and more than 60 Member Scholars who volunteer their time to support and provide independent policy research, advocacy, congressional testimony, legal insight and analysis, and more.
Our Scholars represent dozens of colleges and universities in every region of the country. They live and work in big cities and small towns, on the coasts and in the heartland, and in about half the states — including blue, purple, and red ones.
Sharon Block, professor of practice at Harvard Law School and former acting administrator of the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, is getting a strong start in her new roles as member of the Center’s board of directors and scholar network. This spring, Block testified on unfair labor practices and retaliation against workers at Starbucks. During the hearing, Block called Starbucks’ retaliation and labor law violations “a coordinated campaign to stifle union activity across the company” and called for stronger labor protections. She also garnered considerable media coverage this year via op-eds and commentary on labor law and workers’ rights and protections in outlets including The Hill, Fast Company, Politico, The Nation, Bloomberg Law, CBS News, Yahoo News, SCOTUSBlog, and more.
