Happy Thanksgiving
 |
I want to wish you all the very best for Thanksgiving! As we approach the holiday season, I want to take a moment to wish you and your loved ones peace, warmth, and joy—no matter what traditions you celebrate.
This holiday season invites us to reflect on the joys and lessons of the past year while embracing a renewed commitment to building a community where everyone thrives.
As we gather around tables across America today, let’s remember this: when we unite with purpose and resolve, we are unstoppable.
We are greater than our hardest moments. We have the power to steer our nation back toward justice, freedom, and democracy, ensuring that everyone—not just a privileged few—can thrive. Fear will not define us. Hatred will not consume us. We reject division, mockery, and cruelty, choosing instead the path of respect, dialogue, and cooperation. Together, as a community, we can inspire meaningful change.
At People Power United, our north star guides us:
Everyone deserves dignity, housing, healthcare, and education—regardless of employment, age, race, gender, or religion.
Every community deserves clean air, safe water, and freedom from gun violence.
In our movement, we we will always speak out against racism, xenophobia, Islamophobia, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, sexism, misogyny, ageism, ableism, sizeism, misogynoir, elitism, and bigotry in all its forms.
I've seen the love and grit you bring to building people power in our communities. Your efforts are proof that when we come together, we are unstoppable.
The extremists want us to believe otherwise. They want us to lose hope, to feel powerless, and to surrender to their relentless grab for control. But we know better. Americans do not cower to bullies. We don't give up, stay silent, or stand still in the face of injustice.
We know that if we want change, we have to be willing to roll up our sleeves and do the work—it's not enough to simply voice our frustrations.
Together, we can build a more just and compassionate world—one where everyone's story is honored, and everyone has the chance to thrive. Let the spirit of this season drive us to take action and build a future filled with hope and possibility.
Today’s Call-to-Action
Enjoy your day with family, friends, and community members.
Together we can inspire change!

Join us for a digital town hall featuring Senator Kirsten Gillibrand regarding the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) and the critical window we have to publish this protection before the second Trump administration. This event will dive into the history, significance, current status of the ERA, and how we can all take action. President Biden has the authority, responsibility, and opportunity to institute this critical protection for women, girls, and LGBTQIA+ Americans. For this to happen, we need a mass grassroots movement campaign urging him to take action. Whether you're new to the ERA or a lifelong advocate, this is your chance to learn, connect, and take action. This is one of the most impactful actions we, the American people, can take in these remaining weeks ahead of the next presidential administration.

We, as moms, dads, wives, husbands, abuelas, abuelos, aunties, uncles, sisters, brothers, friends, and other community member refuse to let apathy open the door to fascism.
We are the guardians of our families, values, and democracy. We will stand up, speak out, and take action because our love for America and our communities is stronger than fear, and our commitment to justice is greater than complacency. We will not let fascism happen—not on our watch.
Join us to learn about the dangers of a "recess appointment" by Trump—or any president determined to rule over Americans rather than represent them, and the actions we can take to ensure critical safeguards are in place to protect our democracy and we close the door to authoritarianism.

In a democracy, the principle that "no one is above the law" is non-negotiable.
Allowing leaders to escape the consequences of their actions sends a dangerous message that power, not justice, prevails—ultimately destabilizing society and giving rise to authoritarianism.
History warns us that unchecked power leads to corruption, oppression, and the silencing of our voices, threatening the freedoms we cherish.
Now, more than ever, we need everyone to step up and stand together. Join us and be part of a movement that demands accountability and justice for all. More resources are coming, but today, please join our Not Above the Law Rapid Response Team and sign on to our Freedom Over Fascism pledge.
