We got another one

NationBuilder John, Breaking News: Presidential candidate Tom Steyer just became the latest candidate to go on the record with a promise to #FixDemocracyFirst if elected. That makes 12 candidates pledging to end corruption as their first priority in office. Send a message now to get…

The next step

NationBuilder John, Bernie Sanders is now one of a shrinking number of presidential candidates who hasn’t pledged to tackle corruption in his first 100 days in office. I just finished walking 700 miles with our demand to get all the candidates in both parties to fix America's corrup…

9 arrested

NationBuilder John, I just got back from the Capitol steps in D.C., where nine people were arrested in an anti-corruption sit-in. The story is taking off on social media – and if all of us share it right now we can make it go viral, drawing attention to our demands to fix our broken…

The 3rd debate

NationBuilder John, The mainstream media is trying to ignore America's corruption crisis.  Corruption in government is a top issue for 77% of voters – but debate moderators still haven't asked presidential candidates what they will do to fix it. The third Democratic debate is Septem…

I will sit on the steps

NationBuilder John,  As I walk along the side of the road, people in cars pull up and ask me if I need a ride.  Nope, I tell them: I'm walking from Atlanta to Washington D.C. to call a state of emergency on America's corruption crisis. When I get there, I'm going to sit on the steps…

Day 18

NationBuilder John, Today is day 18 of the Democracy911 walk to declare a state of emergency on American democracy.   I've made it all the way from Atlanta, Georgia, to Charlotte, North Carolina. My ankles hurt, and thunderstorms have pushed me to find shelter along the way. But I'm…

Up to you

NationBuilder John, The third democratic primary debate is less than a month away, and presidential candidates are scrambling to make it to the debate stage. They're responsive to voters right now, because their campaigns will be over if they don’t get enough public support. This is…

Demand candidates #FixDemocracyFirst

NationBuilder John,  Right now, presidential candidates are going on the record with plans for America. They’ve made promises on healthcare, education, and immigration. But they've failed to unveil a plan to fix our corrupt political system. We have a huge opportunity to change that…

I will walk 600 miles

NationBuilder John, When your house is on fire, it's an emergency: You don't wring your hands and complain. You run, find safety, and call 911. America is facing a corruption emergency – but politicians aren't acting like it. Voters rate political corruption as America's biggest cri…

Ted Cruz responded

NationBuilder John, Senator Ted Cruz and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said they would work together on a bipartisan bill to stop members of Congress from leaving office to immediately take lucrative lobbying jobs. But we're not satisfied with talk: we want follow-through.…

The lawsuit

NationBuilder John, The Koch brothers funded a lawsuit to undo New Jersey's new transparency law, and they’re still working around the clock to bring secret money back to New Jersey. They're hoping they can bring secret money back without a fight. But we're fighting back. Thousands …

Kochs sue to undo our latest victory

NationBuilder John,  A dark money group is trying to undo the transparency law our members just worked to pass in New Jersey.  The group, Americans for Prosperity, is funded by the billionaire Koch brothers, and it just filed a lawsuit to stop the "End Dark Money" law from going int…

Thank you

NationBuilder John – Thank you for signing!   Corruption affects nearly every issue we care about, from education to the economy to defense. The media rarely talks about it, at least not in an honest, non-partisan way. So, it's up to us to share these stories with everyone we know. …
