A new bipartisan report provides an in-depth analysis of the country’s performance across 15 key topics and 37 measures. The results reveal both areas of progress and challenges. Despite economic uncertainty and rising distrust in institutions, the U.S. remains a dominant force globally, with strong economic growth and advancements in education and environmental policies. However, it is falling behind in mental health, life satisfaction, civic engagement, and overall trust in its governing systems.
The report highlights improvement in areas such as economic growth, education, and reductions in violent crime, but also reveals troubling trends, including declining trust in institutions, rising depression and anxiety rates, and increased social isolation. While the public’s assessment of these trends aligns closely with the findings of the project, there is a need for urgent action to address the country’s growing mental health crisis, erosion of community ties, and decline in trust in institutions.
The bipartisan initiative aims to shape informed, practical solutions by engaging both experts and the public in data-driven discussions. The report serves as both a warning and a guide, highlighting areas of achievement while signaling where action is needed. As the nation looks to the future, these insights can help inform efforts to maintain economic strength while addressing mental health concerns, promoting civic engagement, and rebuilding trust in institutions.
