    We got this folks. Trump is a one-term president. He will fight it with all that he has but he’s done. What’s not done is that the opposition will regroup & continue to organize like the tea party did. They will be back 2022 & 2024 so you better stay focused & organized too.

    BIG NEWS! We didn't just meet the threshold, we organized our communities to grow the and build towards our vision for a powerful multi-racial, multi-generational progressive party in NY.

    The jury is in: New York’s progressive movement is stronger than ever. 250,000K votes & counting later, we are confident that the New York Working Families Party will remain on the ballot in New York. This is a victory for our party and our movement.

    Our country is split tonight. It’s split between those who believe that ALL people should live in their full dignity & humanity and those that do not and that reminds me that there’s so much more work to do.

    Democrats need to get over their chronic ailment: A desire for bipartisanship. In a winner takes all system, you don’t Marshall Plan your opposition, which is what the Democrats routinely do when the GOP is on the canvass like now.
