Friends,
I would like to wish you a safe and impactful Memorial Day weekend!
The promise of America was never supposed to belong only to the wealthy, white, privileged, or powerful.
It was never supposed to mean liberty for billionaires, justice for the connected, and crumbs for everyone else. Liberty and justice for all means all of us.
But Trump and MAGA Republicans are working every day to shrink that promise. They want an America where billionaires rule, history is whitewashed, cruelty is branded as patriotism, and rights are treated like rewards for the people they approve of.
We cannot let them have it.
For generations, people have had to organize for the rights this country claimed were already guaranteed. Black communities advocated for freedom and the vote. Women rallied for equality and bodily autonomy. Indigenous communities organized to survive genocide, theft, and erasure. Immigrants, workers, LGBTQIA+ people, disabled people, poor people, young people, and elders have all had to demand dignity from systems built to deny it.
That truth is not a weakness. That truth is the work.
As we approach the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, we face a defining choice: allow extremists to drag this country backward, or rise together and demand a future where rights, freedoms, safety, opportunity, and dignity belong to every person who calls this country home.
Freedom for only a few is not freedom.
Justice for only the powerful is not justice.
Democracy for only the wealthy is not democracy.
That is why we are showing up.
On June 27, 2026, people across the country will join the All of Us Nationwide Mobilization to defend truth, equality, freedom, democracy, and liberty and justice for all.

Robert Reich says Democrats should tie Trump Administration corruption to affordability-economy
TO: Democratic candidates in the 2026 midterm elections
RE: Connect Trump’s lousy economy to his corrupt regime.
“The purpose of this memo is to help you shape your midterm message around the crisis of affordability and Trump Republican corruption. I urge you to present these two issues as aspects of the same underlying problem: The economy is lousy for most Americans because Trump Republicans are enabling super-rich oligarchs to siphon off most of its gains while exerting increasing control over it. Their — and Trump’s — self-dealing is undermining trust and confidence in the U.S. economic system. “
I love the photo of dropping off boxes of petitions! Emails and phone calls are not visible enough and are too easy to ignore. We need to swamp Congress with mail bags of letters that could make our voices visible. Plus, they just might disrupt the daily routine and generate some earned media if enough of us organize letter writing events. What do you think? Worth the effort? Stop the steal ... of our tax dollars!
