Solidarity is how we win

Reflections on MoveOn’s work in my first year as executive director

We organized hundreds of rallies across the country calling for Trump’s impeachment. This one took place in Lexington, Kentucky. (Photo by Silas Walker/Getty Images for MoveOn.)
MoveOn members’ advocacy for the HEROES Act helped set the stage for additional, but insufficient, relief passed this month. We will continue to organize for more aggressive government action in the face of this crisis.
MoveOn was part of the Democracy Defense Coalition. We were prepared for an attempt to stop votes from being counted or a threat to the certification of election results. Fortunately, while Trump’s attempted coup was divisive and likely caused lasting harm, it was also incompetent, our country’s institutions held, and Joe Biden will be sworn in as the next president.
We recently began running this TV ad urging the incoming Biden administration to “go big” to meet the challenges we face.
