Whatever holiday you celebrate—Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa—I wish you a joyful and healthy holiday season filled with love and hope. Let’s carry this spirit forward into the new year! - Laurie
Join Us: Building People Power in Remembrance of the Jan. 6 Capitol Insurrection
Mark the anniversary of January 6th by standing up for democracy and justice. While Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress have failed to uphold their allegiance to the Constitution, we must rise up to protect our rights, freedoms, and future.
This event is more than a remembrance—it's a call to action. Together, we will build a resilient, people-powered movement to resist the threats of fascism and ensure that the voices of everyday Americans—not the wealthy elite—shape our nation’s course.
Let’s organize, educate, and mobilize to defend our communities and democracy. Be part of the change.
Details: đź“… Date: January 6th đź•’ Time: 8 PM Eastern đź“Ť Location: Via Zoom
RSVP today and bring your voice to the movement!
Hi friends! As we wrap up 2024 and set our sights on 2025, it's the perfect time to reflect and recommit to our values:
✨ Together we can inspire change!
People Power United is a grassroots group of over 200,000+ members in all 50 states-powered by people like YOU. We champion progress and power to the people.
We believe in change because we make change happen.
Here’s what makes us special:💡 Grassroots energy: No fundraising, no constant emails asking for donations.📢 Impact through action: We believe in the possibility of change and do the work to make it happen. We don’t just complain, we make change happen!
In this community, we will never stay silent in the face of hate or bigotry. We stand up and speak out against racism, xenophobia, islamophobia, antisemitism, homophobia, misogyny, sexism, ageism, ableism, sizeism, elitism, transphobia, misogynoir, and every form of discrimination that seeks to divide and harm.
We believe:
* Everyone deserves dignity —with access to housing, healthcare, and education.
* Everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive — regardless of age, race, sex, sexual preference, preferred pronouns, religion, or employment status.
* Everyone deserves safety—clean air and water, and communities free from gun violence.
