James,
Bernie created Our Revolution nearly a decade ago as part of his life’s mission to build enduring progressive power from the bottom up. Since then, our grassroots army and voter mobilization machine have helped elect more than 1,000 progressives up and down the ballot. And we’re just getting started.
50 days into Trump’s presidency, our work is more important than ever. We’re witnessing the dismantling of our democracy — and in its place, Trump is methodically installing an oligarchy – a government run by billionaires for the billionaires. A system rigged in favor of the wealthiest and most powerful men on earth at the expense of everyone else.
Our Revolution is fighting back, growing our Citizen Action Team, organizing to help progressive candidates win, and creating a collective, organized front to break up corporate power and fight tirelessly for working families. And that essential work will continue long past Trump.
To help ensure Our Revolution is able to carry on Bernie’s work in the years and decades to come, Our Revolution is launching a new partnership with FreeWill. ⅔ of Americans don’t have an up-to-date will, and FreeWill makes it simple and easy to create one. It takes just 20 minutes to write your will using their secure online tool — and the best part is it’s free.
Bernie has been clear from the beginning that transformative change will require both an inside and outside strategy that takes on corporate power everywhere — including within the Democratic Party. As he fights tirelessly to do that in Congress, Our Revolution works on the outside, taking to the streets, the phones, and the ballot boxes.
Together, we are methodically building the progressive power we need to transform our country. By engaging in local races that too often get ignored, we are creating the infrastructure of power at the level of government closest to people’s lives. By mobilizing the grassroots to demand better of our elected officials, we are winning fights and showing the strength of our movement.
We’re sharing FreeWill with you today because it’s an essential step for protecting your loved ones, planning for your assets, and building generational wealth for the communities and causes you care about. And by incorporating a gift to Our Revolution in your will, you will help build a legacy that will help build enduring progressive power in the years to come.
