Democracy is not just a system of government—it’s the power of the people. It begins with us, our voices, and our votes. 

At a time when democracy is under threat, we're asking you - and countless folks across the country - to come together to defend it.

Tuesday, March 4th, marks the President’s Address to Congress (scheduled for 6PM PST). Instead of tuning in, We the People will host community gatherings at state capitols, city halls, town halls, and public gathering spaces across the country, to bring people together in reflection, action, and solidarity.

Whether you’re an experienced event host or this is your first time organizing an event - we’ll be there every step of the way to support you. 

History has shown us that change happens when people come together. From the abolition of slavery to the expansion of voting rights, collective action has always been the driving force of progress.

Please consider joining us to come together for the health of our democracy, the future of our nation, and the well-being of all its people.
