== Work ==

In January 2015, the Committee for Economic Development merged with [[The Conference Board]], given the many synergies between the two organizations.<ref>[http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/the-conference-board-to-merge-with-the-committee-for-economic-development-300020593.html The Conference Board to Merge with the Committee for Economic Development]</ref> Both are non-partisan, non-lobbying, and have trustees comprised mainly from the business community.

The CED has been credited with helping to create the [[Bretton-Woods Agreement|Bretton Woods Agreement]], the [[Employment Act of 1946]] (and therefore the [[Council of Economic Advisers]] and the [[Joint Economic Committee]]) and the [[Marshall Plan]].<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":0" />

Since its inception, CED has promoted policies that its trustees believe will foster American economic growth and development and indirectly benefit the country and people. The organization conducts research and outreach efforts in the U.S. and abroad to change policy at all levels of government. More recently CED has also advocated to increase access to [[pre-kindergarten]] and [[college]], for [[Campaign finance reform in the United States|campaign finance reform]] nationally, for more women in corporate leadership, and for reduced government spending.<ref name="About CED" />{{Better source needed|reason=The current source is insufficiently reliable ([[WP:NOTRS]]).|date=January 2022}}

To advance reasoned solutions from business in the nation's interest, CED convenes for two days, twice-yearly, to address these seminal economic issues.
