Miranda: resistance alone isn't enough

Add Your Name to the Peoples Platform >> Dear Black, Since Trump took office, he's been faced with fierce opposition to every disastrous action he's taken. But resistance alone isn't enough. We need to put forward a vision and path for a just and sustainable future for ALL.  That's why we're teaming up with our partners in the progressive movement to get elected leaders to stand up and support a set of bills that address the REAL issues facing everyday Americans. Sign on as a citizen co-sponsor of the People's Platform — a legislative agenda that puts everyday people first. We will be delivering your petitions to the Democratic National Committee next Tuesday, July 25! If Democrats want to win in 2018 and take our country back from the billionaire class, they need to start by supporting commonsense legislation that speaks to the REAL concerns facing the American people.  We’re working with partners like Our Revolution, Democracy for America, National Nurses United, Progressive Democrats of America and #AllofUs to set a bold agenda and fight to build an America that works for everyone. We're fighting for a Congress that will put people before profits to create an America where everyone, regardless of their age, race, gender or economic status, has access to health care, free college tuition, a livable planet and a job that pays a living wage. The set of bills create that path forward to build a just and sustainable future for ALL, including a soon to be introduced climate bill that will move America off fossil fuels and onto 100% renewable energy by 2035. >> Check out the list of eight bills here. At Food & Water Watch, we believe that ALL people deserve the right to safe food, clean drinking water and a livable climate. Our fights for safe public drinking water, strong food safety standards and moving America off fossil fuels are closely connected to the fights for racial and economic justice and a functioning democracy. All people deserve basic rights to lead healthy, happy, fulfilling lives. This summer is a critical time to unite our communities around a common vision of a just and sustainable future for all. First, sign on in support of the #PeoplesPlatform, then we’ll follow up with more ways to get involved this summer.  Sign the petition: Tell House Democrats — resistance isn’t enough, we must move our country forward with a bold, progressive agenda. Co-sponsor the #PeoplesPlatform when Congress returns to session in September. From universal healthcare access to saving our environment from fossil fuels, we need your help to make these ideals a reality. Add your name in support of the #PeoplesPlatform.  Thank you for taking action, Miranda Carter Online Organizing Director Food & Water Watch act(at)fwwatch(dot)org We'll never take money from the corporations that got us into this mess.
