Now is the time to rise up and reclaim the power that belongs to the people—not billionaires or corporations. Your rights are not for sale, your freedoms are not bargaining chips, and your democracy is worth fighting for. Together, we can expose the lies, resist the policies that favor the few at the expense of the many, and demand accountability from those who seek to profit off our labor, health, and future. This is not just a fight for today—it’s a fight for the world we leave to our children and grandchildren. The time to act is now, for the strength of our democracy lies in our hands, united and unyielding. Let us stand together and ensure that the promise of liberty and justice for all remains intact.

Fascism thrives when ordinary people remain silent, when fear and complacency allow the erosion of rights, freedoms, and the democratic principles we hold dear. The wealthy elite and their political allies are banking on our apathy, hoping we won’t notice as they strip away the rule of law and consolidate power for themselves. They use distractions and disinformation to divide us, while quietly dismantling the very systems that ensure fairness, justice, and opportunity for all. But we have the power to stop them. Every voice raised, every action taken, builds the collective strength necessary to push back against this assault on our communities and values.

Will you join us to push for Freedom over Fascism? Will you take action to ensure everyone in our community can thrive? Will you take action to ensure that fear, hatred, and bigotry have no home in America?

Time is of the essence. We need to get loud and keep amplifying our power to the people messages.

Keep taking action—your voice matters! Together, we can make a difference—don’t let up!
