ICYMI: Last week, we launched our Powered by The People campaign — a rallying call for all the working people, including our immigrant parents, teachers, and neighbors, who keep this country running.

Friend,
We are visionaries, we are creators, we are the ones who build and imagine.
🤝Immigrants, workers, parents, elders, young people and queer people, hand in hand, moving forward together. We have always been the ones our futures have been waiting for.
Right now, we’re facing an opposition trying to crush our collective future through greed, individualism, division, and fear. We can feel the pressure on our hearts, racing instead of resting, running out of air because they keep trying to pull it straight out of our lungs, they keep trying to shrink us, but our people are resilient as rubber bands, we bounce back.
As working people, we face a choice: watch as our current world crumbles or organize.
This moment demands we bring our people together to create the world we’ve always dreamed of.
Our hands — the hands of workers, caretakers, matriarchs, youth, and elders — are eager to shape the new world. Our path is illuminated by our courage to move forward in spite of our fears, our dedication to show up for our people, and our love for each other.
Because we are worth fighting for.
A future where we all make a dignified living, can provide for our communities fully, and truly thrive is worth fighting for. A future rooted in care for each other, where what our people need, we create, is worth fighting for.
In the face of extreme inequality and greed-driven, often violent, oppression, we still show up to power our communities. Our minds work beyond all barriers. Fear has never stopped us, and it won’t stop us now.
Last week, we launched our Powered by The People campaign — our commitment to you that we’ll fight with all we’ve got to take on the greedy billionaires and corporations threatening the working people who power this country.
But, if we’re going to win this fight, we’ll need you to be there in the driver’s seat with us, with the courage to forge a future that includes us all.
👉Are you in? Invite your friends and followers to rise up with us to defend the communities that we power and who power us:
In unity,
Juanita and the rest of the UWD team
