About 10 months ago, I left the Democratic Party. I did so because I knew the country needed a new kind of party to help realign our politics and reverse the polarization that is tearing our country apart.

Some of you reached out to help—thank you!! It has meant the world to me. Thanks to you, we enlisted volunteers in all 50 states and began backing both aligned candidates and reforms like non-partisan open primaries and ranked choice voting that would give our country a real chance.

During my travels, I’ve met other leaders and organizers who recognize both the perilous state democracy is in and the opportunity for a new kind of politics; some of them have been working on alternatives to the two major parties for years.

After hundreds of hours of meetings and conversations, we realized that we could do more together than we could apart. We decided to undertake something that NEVER happens in politics—we would join forces.

Today, I have some incredibly exciting news: The Forward Party is merging with two phenomenal organizations—the Serve America Movement (SAM) and the Renew America Movement (RAM)! The new Forward Party will immediately be the biggest third party in the country by resources at the time you read this.

That’s right—the new Forward Party is now the biggest third party in the country! Our reach will expand very quickly. We are already on the ballot in several states with a goal of 15 states by the end of this year, twice that number in ’23 and all 50 in ‘24.

I now have amazing new colleagues who have been working their hearts out to put our country on a better path for years. One of them is David Jolly, a former Member of Congress from Florida who has been leading SAM. Another is Miles Taylor, formerly known as Anonymous, who has been leading RAM. Former NJ Governor and Cabinet member Christie Todd Whitman (a Republican who endorsed Joe Biden in 2020), former Congressman Joe Sestak, Reverend Ira Acree of Chicago, and many others are part of the Leadership Circle, with many more on the way.

What is the main objection you hear to third parties? “They can’t compete.” Well, we are demonstrating that we can generate the resources necessary to elevate and elect candidates around the country with the support of tens of thousands of Americans and millions of dollars of grassroots funding.

Thanks to SAM, we have a lot of experience building and supporting state parties. And thanks to RAM, we now are poised to reach a whole new audience of Americans who want to take this country in a better direction. Together, we are not left, not right, but Forward.

If the above weren’t exciting enough, we are announcing a national building tour starting this Fall—I’ll be on the bus—that will bring us to communities around the country culminating in our first national convention next summer! With each stop, more and more Americans will join the Forward movement. It’s going to be epic.

I’m super pumped about this. If you were interested in the Forward Party but weren’t sure that it could make a positive difference, now is the time! Sign up for our mailing list ([link removed]) and maybe even donate ([link removed]) a buck or two ([link removed]) . Find out if we’re coming to your town and how you can be a part of it! We have no time to waste.

It’s time to deliver the new approach to party politics millions of Americans have been waiting for—Forward! Let’s go!!!
