Are Democratic voters asking the party what their Project 2026 plan is if they win the House? What's the written plan and the timeline? What's the first thing a Dem House would do in jan 2027?

Last week, 6,709 people signed their strike card. Since 1/20/25, hundreds of thousands have. But we need MORE.
Share at protests, put up flyers, talk with your community. Can you get (3) people to sign their strike card this week? That’s one step closer to a strike. It’s time to go all in.

A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security with 100% of their income.
A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security with less than 1% of their income.
Who agrees it’s time to scrap the cap?

This week, we’re holding Elon Musk, DOGE, and their billionaire friends accountable for their anti-worker actions at events across the US.
