In times like these, when democracy is threatened not by foreign enemies, but from within, it’s not enough to resist. We must organize, strategize, speak with moral clarity, and act with purpose.
That’s why I’m honored to help lead The Save America Movement — and even more honored to introduce the first members of our steering committee.
These are not just advisors. They are trusted leaders shaping every corner of this movement — across faith, policy, law, science, culture, and community. We’ll have more partners to announce from the legal and labor communities in days to come. But many of you have asked, “Who else is involved in the Save America Movement?”
I’m glad to introduce these partners:
Steve Schmidt – bringing hard-earned political strategy to defeat MAGA from within the system.
Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove – grounding us in prophetic faith and public witness.
Erika Alexander – using the power of story and art to challenge authoritarianism.
Ryan Busse – organizing rural America and protecting our public lands from corruption.
Billy Ray – telling the truth through film, media, and narrative resistance.
Dr. Angela Rasmussen – defending science, public health, and truth in the face of disinformation.
These leaders have joined me in building a movement that doesn’t flinch. One rooted in conscience, driven by truth, and ready to fight for the soul of this country.
We’re just getting started.

#####
To talk about the deep moral connection between the fight to stop cuts to healthcare & nutrition assistance and the fight to save public lands in the big, ugly budget bill before Congress, Ryan Busse and Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove will be on Substack Live [ [link removed] ] together at noon ET this Friday, June 20. You can join them live on the Substack app or subscribe for free to Our Moral Moment [ [link removed] ] to get a video of their conversation delivered to you.
