WE WORK TO BUILD TRUST

 Our society works best when built upon a foundation of cross-partisan trust in democratic institutions.  To support this, we work to provide accurate information and foster an environment for healthy political debate, grounded in verifiable facts. Our coalition gives individuals from diverse political backgrounds a space to work together. By focusing on shared democratic values, we demonstrate that constructive dialogue and mutual respect are possible, even amid political differences.

WE SUPPORT FAIR, SAFE, SECURE ELECTIONS

We must work hard to ensure that every eligible vote is counted accurately, and that our electoral system is free from intimidation and coercion. We advocate for and support electoral processes that are open, fair, transparent, and secure.

WE ENCOURAGE PEACEFUL ENGAGEMENT 

Peaceful engagement between Americans, regardless of political affiliation, is fundamental. We promote nonviolence and collaboration to resolve differences and prevent identity-based and political violence.
