Are you upset about the faltering economy? Our healthcare crisis? Government abuse of our civil rights? Well, so are we, and we’re doing something about it. This past election, we partnered with the Democratic Party, and other progressive organizations to take the first step toward necessary change. Now that we have a new administration, we’re working hard to ensure that our leaders in DC restore our civil and human rights, address a national healthcare crisis and work towards ending global poverty.

This summer, Grassroots Campaigns is teaming up with advocacy groups and progressive organizations like Save the Children and the ACLU to run a massive field operation to tackle the huge problems facing our country.
