[ [link removed] ]Congressional Republicans Have Proven Themselves Unworthy To Govern
Congressional Republicans won power in 2024 and have used it to protect
Trump, reward the wealthy, and advance policies that have left millions of
families worse off. From confirming Todd Blanche despite his record of
corruption and misconduct to cutting healthcare and food assistance while
showering the richest Americans with tax breaks, their actions reveal
exactly who this GOP-led government serves. Now voters have an opportunity
to hold Trump and his congressional enablers accountable – but only if we
can overcome their attacks on our elections and mobilize in numbers too
great to ignore.

[ [link removed] ]Two Months to Change the Course of Our Country
We are just over two months from one of the most consequential elections
of our lives – and our clearest chance to stop Trump and his MAGA allies
in Congress from continuing their rampage against our economy, our rights,
and our freedoms. They have cut healthcare and food assistance to fund tax
breaks for the wealthy, enabled corruption at the highest levels of
government, attacked the right to vote, and empowered a captured Supreme
Court to push their extremist agenda even further. If the MAGA Congress
remains in power, they will take it as permission to accelerate every part
of this assault.
People For is working now to mobilize voters in the states and districts
that could decide control of Congress, help them overcome new barriers to
the ballot, and turn growing outrage into votes. But reaching and turning
out the voters we need takes resources—and every day we delay is time we
cannot get back. [ [link removed] ]Please donate today to help us end the MAGA Congress,
put a check on Trump’s lawlessness, and begin building a government that
protects our families, our freedoms, and our democracy.

[ [link removed] ]Inflaming Anti-Muslim Bigotry is the GOP’s Desperate Distraction
Strategy from MAGA Failures
With the midterms approaching, right-wing politicians and Christian
Nationalist leaders are trying to turn anti-Muslim fear into political
power. Their baseless warnings that Sharia law is replacing the
Constitution are more than cynical fundraising tactics: They are part of a
yearslong campaign to deny American Muslims the same religious freedom and
political participation these figures claim to champion. Now that rhetoric
is escalating into openly racist organizing alongside violent January 6
extremists, exposing how far the movement is willing to go to energize its
base.

[ [link removed] ]Your Vote Is Too Important To Leave to Chance
The Supreme Court’s MAGA majority has handed Trump a dangerous head start
on a scheme that could disrupt voter rolls, delay mail ballots, and sow
chaos before the midterms. The justices did not declare his power grab
legal, but by allowing it to advance while litigation continues, they have
made preparation urgent. Voters must check their registrations, make
plans, and help others do the same – while we fight to ensure neither
Trump nor his judicial collaborators gets the final word.

[ [link removed] ]The Far Right Captured the Supreme Court. We Can Take It Back.
The recent Supreme Court decision enabling Trump’s attack on vote by mail
is not an isolated failure – it is the predictable result of a
decades-long right-wing campaign to capture the Supreme Court and wield
its power against our rights and freedoms. From voting and abortion to
LGBTQ+ equality, worker protections, and presidential accountability, six
unaccountable justices have made clear they will not restrain themselves.
If we want to break their stranglehold, Congress must be prepared to
expand the Supreme Court under the next pro-democracy president.

At a moment when democratic norms are being tested and the future can feel
uncertain, planning ahead is one meaningful way to help sustain a healthy
democracy for the generations that follow. The choices we make today shape
the world future generations will inherit, from the strength of our
institutions to the values that guide our communities. Estate planning is
about protecting the people and causes you love, making your wishes clear,
and helping ensure that what matters most to you continues to have an
impact long into the future.
Too often, creating a will feels complicated, out of reach, or
prohibitively expensive. That is why we are proud to partner with
FreeWill, a no cost service that helps supporters create a will and plan
their estate with confidence. It is a simple, accessible way to take care
of your loved ones and put your values into action, on your own terms.
