John has worked in the nonprofit sector for the majority of his career, most recently as General Counsel to the Center for Policy Alternatives, a nonpartisan, nonprofit 501(c)(3) focused on public policy and leadership in the fifty states. He holds a J.D. from Washington University in St. Louis and a B.A. from Dickinson College. John lives in Arlington, Va., with his wife and children. Corporate Voices for Working Families is the leading national business membership organization representing the private sector voice in the dialogue on public policy issues involving working families. A nonprofit, nonpartisan organization, Corporate Voices for Working Families aims to improve the lives of all working families by developing and advancing innovative and sustainable policies that have bipartisan support built through collaboration among the private sector, government and other stakeholders. In helping to create this bipartisan support, we facilitate research in several areas that spotlight the intersecting interests of business, community and families: workforce readiness, family economic stability and flexibility in the workforce. Collectively our 50 partner companies, with annual net revenues of more than $1 trillion, employ more than 4 million individuals throughout all 50 states.
