Our Revolution & It's time to grow a backbone and fight

Thank you so much for continuing to fuel the political revolution!

Here are a few of the resources we mentioned on the call: a FAQ about local organizing, our ever-growing list of Organizing Guides and a link to join us on the Local Organizing Slack.

It was great speaking with all of you today - I'm looking forward to working with you going forward.

It's time to grow a backbone and fight:

Our country is in crisis – but that crisis didn’t begin with the election of Donald Trump.

We were already in a crisis because for years and years and years, Washington has worked just great for the rich and the powerful, but far too often, it hasn’t worked for anyone else. The excuses end now.

This morning I spoke to members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and told them: It’s time for Democrats to grow a backbone and to get out there and fight. Watch my speech and share it on Facebook:

The world has changed a lot over the past few months. I’m still finding my way, finding my footing, day-by-day, step-by-step. But with each passing day, we learn.

The lesson of history is that when faced with a danger like Donald Trump, the opposition must be willing to fight. It’s time for us to make clear – in every way, from every mountaintop we can – that we will fight back.

Thanks for being a part of this,

Elizabeth
