Hi friend,
With all of the disturbing things happening in our politics, government,
and society right now, I’m worried that Americans are beginning to accept
this as the way things will be, no matter what. In other words, I’m
worried that too many Americans are underestimating their own power.
We are, obviously, witnessing a profound series of tests of our democracy,
and the day-to-day results have been mixed at best. Maps are being redrawn
in order to cut voters out of the democratic process. Voices are being
silenced by government pressure, because they are critical of the people
in charge of our government. Leaders are allowing abuses to take place
even though they knew better.
Even so, it is vital to remember that a majority of the American people
are not on board with all this - and that the American people are still in
charge. That’s why it’s so important to address the American people,
wherever we can get a hearing, and to amplify other leaders who do the
same.
The people in charge of Washington today understand some things about
power. But their way only works if we forget the most important thing
about power in America, which is that we, the people, are always in charge
of what happens next.
When we organize, step up, speak out, and demand better, we can change the
course of history.
I’m proud of what we’ve already done together, and grateful for your
continued support. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps fuel this
work and allows us to show rather than tell how politics in this country
can be different.

building a better kind of politics and standing up for the core values of
our democracy?
