The Overton window of political possibility is the range of ideas the public is willing to consider and accept.
Public officials cannot enact any policy they please like they’re ordering dessert from a menu. They have to choose from among policies that are politically acceptable at the time. And we believe the Overton window defines that range of ideas.
