Dear Our Revolution supporter,
Thank you for all you are doing, working with Our Revolution, to
defeat Donald Trump – and win the Senate – and elect progressives
down-ballot. We will celebrate when we win – but we know that
winning won’t instantly solve America’s biggest economic
challenges.
I invite you to sign a pledge to fight
( [link removed] ) for the new
Solidarity Agenda. Working with 100 activists, leaders, and
thinkers – many of whom are active in Our Revolution – I have
helped to write and circulate it, because, like the others
involved, I know we are going to need a broad movement to change
the rules of our democracy and fight for large economic change.
We built the Solidarity Agenda around big demands for what
Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren call “big structural change”
to “unrig” the economic system for the 99 percent. Here are the 5
principles of the Solidarity Agenda, elaborated online.
( [link removed] )
I. Invest in Economic Recovery, Sustainable Growth and Green
Jobs
II. Fight Inequality – Tax Justice, Union Rights, Racial
Justice, Empower Women
III. A New Social Contract – Medicare for All, Free Education,
Income for Families
IV. Transform Corporate Power
V. A Global Economic Strategy for Working Americans
I urge you to read the full Solidarity Agenda – online
( [link removed] ) – where each
of these large goals is elaborated. I think you’ll see it is
broadly consistent with the program advanced by OR and Bernie
Sanders.
If the Solidarity Agenda represents your vision, please click
here and sign the pledge
( [link removed] ). Although it
is not an official project of Our Revolution, the Solidarity
Agenda has been endorsed by many current or former OR leaders –
including Joseph Geevarghese, Nina Turner, Jane Kleeb, and Jim
Hightower. And it gives us an opportunity to work after the
election with many people who all agree with our strategy to
build a movement against the neoliberalism – and for a
progressive economic vision based on the great labor principle of
Solidarity.
20,000 activists have already signed the pledge, and we hope you
will join them and the 100 initial signers
( [link removed] ). We want to
demonstrate that a new majority is coming to see that prosperity
will require economic solidarity: bold investment to create jobs
for all, a much stronger social contract, and a Green New Deal –
with investment targeted especially to Black, poor, and working
class communities hurt the most by the pandemic and the
recession. And, of course, to pass these big economic changes, we
need to change the undemocratic Senate rules, as we say in the
Democracy section under III. New Social Contract.
Shortly after the election, we will launch the SOLIDARITY AGENDA
to the media – because if we ever needed to fight for justice,
jobs, and sustainable prosperity, the time is NOW.
When you sign the pledge
( [link removed] ), the
organizers will share ideas and actions from the many progressive
groups working on aspects of the Solidarity Agenda. And together,
we will build a movement to build an economy that works for all
Americans and for the world.
In SOLIDARITY,
Larry Cohen
Our Revolution Board Chair
