I have attended quite a few Rallies in my state RI, signed many petitions and written and sent post cards to voter a couple of times. I intend to attend the Oct 18th No Kings Rally in Providence. I hope this will help but many people don’t see what is going on yet.
I greatly appreciate receiving and reading People Power United, and thank you for your efforts against Trump and his fascist ways. But I currently also follow Robert Reich and David Sirota's Lever with paid subscriptions, as well as supporting the ACLU financially, and cannot afford more at this time. By the same token, there is only so much I can follow every day (I also read Matt Stoler and Ryan Grim on a daily basis for free) - so as much as I would like to 'click on' many if not most of the support lists you send out, the problem I have is that most of them automatically enroll me in more postings which I simply can't handle. Please consider making all of those an opt-in choice and not automatic so that I can support them.
Thanks for sharing Jonathan! I have great news: every action we share is an opt-in choice! No one has to sign any letter, petition, or signup for an event. We also have all of our content free to all subscribers and have no paywalls.
Thanks for your response. I realize I don't have to click on anything, but I may not have explained my concern very well - what I was referring to was trailers like the one below that automatically sets up other orgs to send emails unless I take more steps to unsubscribe:
"You may receive email updates from CHN Action, Demand Progress, Democracy for America Advocacy Fund, Inequality Media Civic Action, More Perfect Union, National Campaign for Justice, Native Organizers Alliance Action Fund, People Power United, Social Security Works, TakeItBack.Org, The Workers Circle, and Americans for Tax Fairness Action Fund, the sponsors of this letter campaign.
You may receive email updates from People Power United, who shared this letter campaign with you."
Though I may want to support many of these letter campaigns, I have no immediate 'opt out' in these cases.
And thanks for your activism! I do understand the coalition actions are just that a way to bring attention to an issue and help groups grow. If you are not interested in doing the coalition actions I would recommend not taking action on the coalition actions and/or you might consider our People Power United Action Alerts which are specific to our group and not part of a coalition effort: https://newsletter.peoplepowerunited.org/p/action-alerts Also fyi, we do not share data. Never have, and never will. Again thanks for your activism!
I admit I am scared. I will continue to protest, peacefully and sign petitions. All of us must stand up to bullying. Hell, if I could afford it, I would move my family out of this country.
I am not sure what is going to happen when Hegseth and Trump talk to the generals. The military has taken an oath to protect the American people. What Trump is doing is so against the Constitution and the law. We need to pray that these people stand up against the evil.
Well the big problem is can't get folks to understand if u make less then 100k a year you do not belong voting Republican. Poor folks voting Republican then bitch noting is changing for them year after year they vote in the same person in office over and over like Mitch Mcconnell that scumbag never did anything for the lower and middle class even when he grew up poor and beat polio. But did that guy do anything to help the lower and middle class no never. VOTE BLUE FOR NOW ON 💙 BLUE
Here’s an idea. People should take their older parents or grandparents who are losing their healthcare and meet up with members of Congress get right in their faces. That’s the only thing they will understand they have to see what their choices who rather their choices impact.
From now on every vote. Vote democrats drown out the Republicans let them kill there selfs when they loss all control and all those Republican politicians can pay the American people back all the money they have taken. Big corporations will pay there share Billionaires will pay there share. Trump and his family will rott in jail
I agree we must work together but unfortunately your action is weak and we have to do more than march. We must arrest Trump and his support staff immediately: This is what was done in South Korea last year. We must occupy Whitehouse grounds until trump and his staff surrenders. How can we do this?
1. Unite all left-wing groups under one goal of removing Trump now.
2. Continue to expose their lies and counter protest at all right-wing events.
3. Stop all debates as it normalizes their arguments.
4. Form left-wing self-defence groups to defend against right-wing attacks.
5. Unite all labor support to help stop business and remove Trump.
6. Build and unite our own media networks.
7. Ask employees at key industries to protest.
8. Ask for brave new ideas rather than using traditional ones.
No one on either party wants shut down, even for selfish reasons. But as a physician I thinks it’s important to stand up to protect healthcare for the millions that would be affected by the cuts. I used to be Republican and will always have healthcare but many will suffer if we accept the crappy big beautiful bill regarding health
Hi Marie, I have to disagree that no one from either party wants a government shutdown. In the history of this country only the Republican party has used the threat of a government shutdown to achieve political gains. The Democrats are trying to save american lives and jobs.
Republicans aren't going to budge, they've made this abundantly clear. They are the non negotiators, lying thru their teeth every time they open their mouths. If Democrats don't get some concessions, I'm all for a shut down. Anyone that's unable to see who the real villians are needs a brain scan and some heavy duty glasses.
Remove Trump now☠️⚰️

Is a great essay on what we should do
