Are you ready to change the very foundation of our democracy?

And it’s an important time for us too, as you’ve heard in the past. But this fight is bigger than us — it’s bigger than the Squad, than Justice Democrats, than the entire progressive movement. We’re working to radically change the way our democracy works, which means we have to do something radic…

You invested in Justice Democrats. Now Justice Democrats are in Congress fighting for economic justice.

Yesterday, AOC introduced her plan for a Just Society in America — a comprehensive series of bills that will tackle poverty, fight for housing justice, protect immigrants, and much more. It’s our first step towards reversing the decades of damage that Republicans since Ronald Reagan have inflicte…
