Our mission statement: To strengthen our Democracy and achieve economic, environmental, and social justice for all through civic engagement and Progressive grassroots action.
We want to create a system in which Lincoln’s dream of a “government of the people, by the people, and for the people” becomes a reality. We support policies that will lead to more transparency in government, weaken the influence of the donor class, encourage higher voter turnout, and provide greater citizen participation in the process.
