… by protecting voting rights and supporting Democratic candidates and grassroots groups in battleground states. We say NOPE to those who threaten our democracy.
We’re an all-volunteer organization based in Washington, D.C., but our reach is nationwide.
Janelle Stelson for Congress: This is one of our best opportunities to flip a House seat, win back the majority, and stop MAGA. Early money is key to winning this race!
Vote Yes for Fair and Independent PA Courts: Retain three Democrat-endorsed Supreme Court justices and help protect voting rights.
Make the Road Access PA: Help NOPE’s grassroots ally in Pennsylvania turn out underrepresented voters.
Virginia’s 2025 statehouse and governor elections will be viewed as a referendum on Trump and the Republican’s MAGA-fueled agenda. We are all-in to flip the govenorship and hold the Dem majority in the House of Delegates.
We’re recommending a list of highly competitive statehouse candidates. We also urge you to support our grassroots allies, New Virginia Majority and Casa in Action, as they build community and turn out underrepresented voters. Your dollars will make a difference!
We are not giving in to despair or defeatism. Together, we will cultivate hope and continue to say NOPE to those who threaten our democracy. Our courage, energy, and belief in a better future will help us keep fighting.
"We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope."

In 2025 we are working to:
Help elect progressive candidate Judge Susan Crawford to the WI Supreme Court. (Objective achieved on April 1.)
Defeat the Big Brutal Budget bill. (It broke our hearts to lose this one.)
Elect Democrats to the Virginia House of Delegates and elect Abigail Spanberger to be the next Governor of VA. (See the action opportunites on our calendar and the donation opportunities above.)
Retain a liberal majority on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court - 3 seats are at stake in 2025. (See our donation advice above; watch for volunteer opportunities to get out the vote on the weekend before Election Day.)
Prepare to win back the US House in 2026. (Pennsylvania is ground zero—see above for donations; let’s give challenger Janelle Stelson an early start.)
Oppose the tsunami of undemocratic actions pushed by the the current administration. (See our weekly bulletins.)
