📢 Who we are and what we are fighting for
People Power United members believe in the possibility of change and do the work to make it happen. We walk the walk.
Good Morning to all my rowdy friends! Before I hop into who we are and what we are fighting for, I have a few reminders that we have several events available for you to join us in getting into good trouble:
Take Action with Postcards to Voters:
Join People Power United to make a meaningful difference by participating in our postcard and letter-writing program to increase voter turnout in critical elections. No supplies are needed, and we provide all instructions for our current campaigns. By engaging with targeted voters, we help drive change in close races.
6:30 pm Eastern Letters and Postcards to Voters
**Please note that latecomers will not be admitted out of respect for the presenter and attendees.
We also are hosting additional dates and times if that works better for your schedule. Click here for more details. Here is some additional information on our efforts:
Where to get Postcards: People Power United now offers postcards! Check out our newest design(s) here. Your purchase helps our People Power efforts. You are also welcome to use plain cardstock or order cards from Etsy or Amazon; the postcard designs and where to order them are entirely up to you.

Who we are and what we are fighting for
We are now over 200,000+ members united in pushing Freedom over Fascism, championing our rights, freedoms, democracy, and the rule of law. We are in all 50 states, and we do the work to elect leaders who champion progress and we hold them accountable for the will of the people.
In this community, we will always speak out against racism, xenophobia, Islamophobia, antisemitism, homophobia, misogyny, sexism, ageism, ableism, sizeism, transphobia, misogynoir, elitism, and bigotry!
We are fighting for our rights, freedoms, democracy, and the rule of law:
Radical MAGA Republicans support troops in many parts of the world but ignore those who stand guard at our Capitol during an insurrection. We spend almost one billion dollars a day defending this nation in a "war on terror," and yet we have crumbling infrastructure with a limited budget for repairs. Children go hungry, families have limited educational opportunities, seniors skip meds, and countless people die prematurely because of a lack of access to healthcare or affordable housing. Our air and water are polluted, yet those offenders continue receiving tax breaks.
Radical MAGA Republicans don't want to represent America; they want to rule over us. And they want Donald Trump, a 34 Count Felon, Insurrectionist, Rapist, Liar, Fraudster, Disability Mocker, Female Genitalia Grabber, Twice-Impeached President, Defamer, Wife Cheater, Sexual Harasser, and someone who called our US soldiers "suckers" and "losers" to lead us.
We must hold our leaders accountable to the people's will; if they do not listen, we must do the work to replace them. Progress means we inspire people to take action on issues they care about, and they feel empowered to hold their leaders accountable.
I've witnessed your incredible people power, and I urge you to keep making good trouble while bringing more people along to join us! Thank you for standing up for our rights, freedoms, democracy, and the rule of law. Let’s do this!
