Core offering

Coalition for a Prosperous America provides policy advocacy, economic research, public affairs communications, and tax policy services exclusively on behalf of domestic U.S. producers, manufacturers, workers, farmers, and ranchers. Its Government Relations team engages legislators, the administration, and regulators to advance strategic trade, tariff, manufacturing, and tax policies. The Economics Research team produces independent analysis on international trade, currency, and industrial strategy across manufacturing, technology, and agriculture.

Product overview

The Coalition for a Prosperous America (CPA) is a national, bipartisan nonprofit organization that does not offer a unified software product but rather provides a suite of policy advocacy and research services. Its core offerings include Government Relations & Advocacy services, Public Affairs & Communications, Economics Research, and Tax Policy services. CPA also operates CPATV, a media platform featuring podcasts such as 'The Big 3' and 'The Chairman's Countdown', and publishes the Prosper Weekly newsletter. In 2025, CPA launched the Industry Alliance for Trade EnforcementNOW, a coalition of member companies dedicated to combating trade fraud and strengthening trade law enforcement.

Partnerships

Three partnerships are on record, tiered core and minor.

• Aluminum Extruders Council (AEC)coreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 9 July 2026CPA and AEC submitted a joint white paper to US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent calling for stricter eligibility rules for domestic content bonus credits under Section 45Y and 48E tax incentives. The organizations argue that current rules create a loophole allowing imported aluminum extrusions to qualify for domestic incentives despite representing 61% of solar frame manufacturing costs.
• Responsible Battery CoalitionminorStrategic or Co-development Partner · 6 February 2026CPA recognized Clarios, a founding member of the Responsible Battery Coalition, for leadership in sustainable battery manufacturing. Clarios participated in the White House launch of 'Project Vault' to establish a U.S. Strategic Critical Minerals Reserve.
• Industry Alliance for Trade EnforcementNOWcoreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 6 October 2025CPA launched the Industry Alliance for Trade EnforcementNOW with other member companies to combat systemic trade fraud and push for stronger enforcement of U.S. trade laws. The alliance advocates for publishing a public enforcement scorecard, passing the PAIL Act to establish a Trade Crime Unit, and closing the 'ghost importer' loophole.

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• National Association of Manufacturers (NAM): Largest US manufacturing trade association and the dominant lobbying voice for industrial policy in Washington. Directly comparable to CPA as a membership-based advocacy organization representing manufacturers on trade, tax, and regulatory issues, but with a far larger budget, staff, and policy scope.
• American Farm Bureau Federation: National membership-based advocacy organization representing US agricultural producers. Comparable to CPA in mission (lobbying for US farmers), membership model, and policy domains (trade, tariffs, farm income), though Farm Bureau is far larger and more politically mainstream.
• National Foreign Trade Council: DC-based trade and investment policy association representing multinational corporations. Direct peer to CPA on trade-policy advocacy and economic research, with the opposite ideological stance on tariffs; ideal contrast for understanding CPA's protectionist positioning.
• American Iron and Steel Institute: Trade association representing the North American steel industry, including Nucor (a CPA board member). Direct sectoral peer to CPA on steel-specific trade policy, Section 232 actions, and tariff advocacy, with deep federal government relationships.
• Tariffs Hurt the Heartland: Anti-tariff coalition of US businesses, farmers, and consumers lobbying against the current administration's tariff regime. Direct ideological opposite of CPA, but a comparable grassroots/membership-led advocacy model on trade policy.
• R-CALF USA: Independent cattle producers' trade association represented on CPA's board by CEO Bill Bullard. Comparable as a producer-led advocacy organization focused on trade enforcement and market protection for US agricultural producers.

Broad incumbents

• U.S. Chamber of Commerce: The largest US business lobby and a broader incumbent operating across all sectors. Overlaps with CPA on trade, tax, and regulatory advocacy, but typically favors free-trade orthodoxy versus CPA's pro-tariff stance; useful comparator for advocacy scale and influence model.
• Information Technology Industry Council (ITI): Global trade and public policy advocacy organization for the technology industry. Comparable to CPA as a DC-based association doing advocacy and economic research on trade and tax, though focused on tech rather than traditional manufacturing.

Emerging players

• AFL-CIO: Largest US labor federation, representing workers across manufacturing and other sectors. Comparable to CPA on worker/member advocacy and on aligning with the current administration's trade posture; structurally similar as a federation of member organizations funding advocacy work.
• Americans for Prosperity: Grassroots advocacy organization funded by donor networks to influence policy on taxes, trade, and regulation. Comparable to CPA on advocacy-driven funding model and policy focus on tax and trade, but typically more free-market oriented.
