Voting In America
We are kicking off 2022 with our first Citizen Engagement Forum of the new year! Mark your calendars and get registered for Citizen Engagement Forum: Voting in America on Sunday Jan 23rd.
This 2 hour event will include subject-matter experts discussing the topic of voting in America with voters from around the country. Our goal is to provide a non-partisan opportunity to get a comprehensive and inclusive look at what voting looks like in our country as a starting point for the work we do to ensure a more representative and accountable government.

May 2021 National Assembly:
Seeking Effective Elections
Thank you again to everyone who spent their Sunday with us, having tough conversations and finding action steps forward at our National Assembly. Here is a quick look at what we accomplished, and where we go from here:
- We had participants from every region of the country and across the political spectrum
- Attendees participated in 20 total in-depth discussions around the issue of effective elections
- 80% of event survey respondents reported having met and gotten to know someone with a different political perspective, and believe common ground was identified & 90% believed that everyone’s point of view - including their own - was heard respectfully
Some thoughts from participants on the highlights of the National Assembly:
It was an impressive coming together of Americans with diverse backgrounds and ways of thinking about how to advance and improve our country.
The best part of the day was spending time with others engaged enough to spend their Sunday on better our system.
Stay tuned as we build on the theme of effective elections and incorporate thoughts and feedback from the Assembly in the expansion of our projects and programming!
We’ve had enough “Politics As Usual”
Why Are We Divided?
Coming Together - To Make Our Government Work - For Us
Who will change our lives and our world?
Not a party.
Not a politician.
We the people will.
But we can’t do it alone.
Story of
The People
Born out of concern for the future of our country, we empower everyday citizens to get involved in the political process from inception to execution. Our work breaks down the barriers of participation and restores balance to make our government reflect the interests of its citizens. We are proudly non-partisan and our members span the entire political spectrum.
Now it is up to us as Americans from all walks of life
to unite and take a stand. Do you want to get off the
sidelines and actively join together to work on our
country?
For the people.
By the people.
