Micah Weinberg is Senior Research Fellow for the California Program at the New America Foundation. In this capacity, he works with the national Health Policy Program to inform government officials and policymakers about New America's proposed reforms to health financing and delivery systems. His specific focus is on state health policy, building on prior research and consulting positions in which he worked with legislators and state executive staffs to develop strategies to control health costs while improving access and promoting innovation.
Dr. Weinberg has spent his career at the nexus of applied research, practical politics, and economic development policy. Since 2001, he has been the President of Weinberg Civic Strategies. His recommendations have guided the policy and investment decisions of many state, county and local governments and nonprofit organizations in the areas of community development and human services. This work built on his role as Vice President of Wilhelm and Conlon Public Strategies, a firm he started with David Wilhelm, former Chair of the Democratic National Committee. At Wilhelm and Conlon, Dr. Weinberg was part of the team that created Adena Ventures, the nation's first New Market Venture Capital Company. He is also an experienced political speechwriter, having written public addresses for national political leaders and congressional candidates.
He holds a doctoral degree in Political Science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and graduated with honors from Princeton University with a degree in Politics.
