The question isn’t if we have power - it’s how we use it.
John,
We’ve been hearing one question over and over: What can we, as regular people, do to fight back?
The truth is, individually, there’s only so much we can do. But collectively? That’s where the real power is.
Summer Lee is taking the fight directly to Congress—calling out corruption, standing up for working people, and refusing to back down. But she can’t do this alone. If you’ve been looking for a way to push back, this is it!
One way to take action right now? Click here and chip in whatever you can to help Summer keep up the fight. We have just hours left to reach our end-of-month goal and to raise $1,200, and every contribution—no matter the size—sends a message that we’re in this together.
When Trump and Musk froze federal health funding, putting lives in jeopardy, Summer spoke out.
When Republicans blocked funding to replace stolen food benefits, leaving families and seniors desperate, Summer called it out.
When a billionaire was handed unprecedented control over our financial systems, Summer demanded answers.
When so-called "moderate Republicans" promised they wouldn’t cut Medicaid—then caved and voted for a budget that strips millions of people of their healthcare—Summer didn’t hesitate. She stood her ground and voted HELL NO.
When the Department of Defense tried to slip another $150 billion in taxpayer money into an agency that has failed seven consecutive audits while working families struggle, Summer led the charge to bring attention to it.
When Trump & Elon Musk threatened institutions and agencies that refuse to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion programs, Summer took action—leading 43 of her colleagues on a letter to fight back and demand protection for students, faculty, and workers targeted by these attacks.
And that’s just the beginning.
Fighting back means organizing. It means holding those in power accountable. It means refusing to stay silent. And right now, it means making sure Summer has the resources to keep up this fight!
If we want to stop these attacks on our communities, we have to act now. Every dollar we raise fuels this movement—can we count on you to click here and help us close the gap before midnight? The last thing we need is for them to see us fall short of our goal.
