Target: Democratic National Committee and Congressional Democratic Leadership
Goal: We call on Democratic Party leadership to adopt a bold, people-centered agenda that addresses economic inequality, protects reproductive rights, supports immigrants, and invests in safe, thriving communities.
The narrative that the Democratic Party has 'abandoned the center' ignores the reality that millions of working-class Americans—across all backgrounds—are still struggling to make ends meet. Wages have stagnated, healthcare costs have soared, and housing is increasingly out of reach. Meanwhile, corporations and billionaires continue to benefit from tax breaks and loopholes.
We reject the idea that fighting for student debt relief, affordable healthcare, and fair wages is 'radical.' These are basic necessities that every family deserves. We demand a Democratic Party that stands unapologetically for reproductive freedom, racial justice, and humane immigration policies. We demand investments in public safety that address root causes of crime—like poverty, lack of opportunity, and underfunded schools—instead of relying solely on punitive measures.
It's time to listen to real people, not just political consultants' imaginary voters. We urge Democratic leaders to embrace a vision that puts people first and builds a future where everyone can thrive.
