Will you join us in sending a letter of support for President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Ukrainian leaders and soldiers, and the resilient people of Ukraine?
Dear President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Ukrainian leaders and soldiers, and the resilient people of Ukraine,
I want to express my deep regret that the United States of America has failed you in this critical moment. The United States has long stood as a beacon of democracy, a defender of freedom, and a steadfast ally against tyranny. Yet, today, some of our so-called leaders are betraying those values.
As someone who calls America home, I am ashamed of the disgraceful treatment you received from President Trump and Vice President JD Vance. Their actions do not represent the overwhelming majority of Americans; nearly 80% of those who call America home did not vote for Trump, and we most certainly do not support this dangerous, isolationist agenda that abandons our allies in their time of need.
The Republican Party, along with some complicit Democrats, has chosen to elevate a Trump who, while elected President, is no leader and is a 34-time convicted felon—an insurrectionist, a serial liar, a fraudster, and a man who mocks the disabled, assaulter, defames others, and insults our troops. This is not leadership. It is tyranny.
I also want to acknowledge that for too long, many of us in the United States took our rights, freedoms, and democracy for granted. We failed to go out and vote for leaders who represented the will of the people, and beyond that, we were unable to hold our leaders accountable. Now, in your darkest hour, America is displaying weak, shameful leadership. Trump is not a leader—his bullying, name-calling, pushing, and childish antics during your meeting were an embarrassment. Leadership is about courage, honor, and standing with those who fight for freedom, not cowering to dictators like Putin.
But know this: millions of us stand with you. I recommit my support to Ukraine and to all who value freedom over fascism. I will:
I will send a send a letter of support for President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Ukrainian leaders and soldiers, and the resilient people of Ukraine
Call my members of Congress at (202) 224-3121 and demand they support Ukraine and stop empowering Putin.
I will Take the Freedom Over Fascism pledge to reject authoritarianism in all its forms.
I will Vote in every election and urge my friends and family to elect leaders who defend democracy and stand with our allies.
I will Send a message to my members of Congress and demand they support Ukraine and stop empowering Putin.
I will send a message to Tell Trump: Stop Siding with Putin and Russia Over Ukraine
I will sign the petition: Tell Trump: Stop Siding with Russia Over Ukraine
You are not alone. The fight for democracy is global, and we will not waver.
Slava Ukraini!

National General Strike
Workers across the nation are rising up to demand fair wages, better working conditions, and the benefits we all deserve—and we need YOU to stand in solidarity!
Join The People’s Movement: National General Strike and send a powerful message to corporations and lawmakers: we will not back down until every worker is treated with dignity and respect!
📢 We're fighting fascism, and this is how we reclaim our power! 💥
Grassroots activism is a powerful force that can shape the direction of a nation.
Many of us can do one or two simple things a day for advocacy, but we need more people taking action.
The longer the power of the people stays on the sideline, the stronger Trump, Musk, and Putin grow.
If we want to protect the future of this country, we must double down on our organizing efforts to build people power in every city and every state in our nation.
We must show up, speak out, and build power to replace these corrupt politicians.
By taking action, holding leaders accountable, and advocating for dignity, respect, and opportunity for all, we can build an America that lives up to the values of liberty and justice for all, not just the wealthy, powerful, or privileged.
Here are some ways we can take action:
We will resist through rallies, protests, general strikes, boycotts, and 198 acts of civil disobedience, targeting anyone who enables or attacks our communities with oppression, injustice, hatred, and bigotry.
We will speak out, show up, and build power.
