HARNESSING OUR POWER

Jump to today’s actions:

Call the Senate

Background

No matter where we live or what we look like, we all deserve the chance to reach our full potential. Corporations and the politicians they buy have kept us from realizing this future--by pitting us against each other by race, class, gender, sexual orientation, and ability.

These same corporations and politicians are afraid we will realize the power we have when we cross these lines and come together. They saw what our coalitions have done in the last year

Win the White House
Win the Senate
Pass poverty-ending pandemic relief
Save lives with vaccines

The center of our power is the right to vote, which is why the forces against voting are so loud. They want us to doubt our power, to give up. But, they can only take away our power if we let them.

We must keep strategizing, taking actions, and caring for ourselves. We must keep pushing to protect our right to vote by abolishing the filibuster and passing

For the People Act
John Lewis Voting Rights Act
Judiciary Act of 2021

Commit to calling Congress and to taking action to keep our right to vote. We must harness our power for our future.

1. Call the Senate.
