We asked Indivisibles around the country what they want to see from Democrats in 2026: Nominate real fighters, secure stronger leadership, and demonstrate that the Democratic majorities of 2027 will not be held back by the 2025 status quo.

We are in a battle against fascism. We need fighters, not folders.

It’s time to turn the page in the Democratic Party.

Tonight, we did something everyone counted out. We proved to a nation that states like Tennessee are still worth fighting for. The margin was close, and that can only be attributed to the thousands of volunteers who showed out. This is just the beginning.

Social media is full of people sharing their Spotify Wrapped results — while Spotify is full of ICE recruitment ads.

As long as Spotify is willing to take money from ICE, they don’t need (and don’t deserve) free advertising on our social feeds.
