Skye Perryman, President and CEO of Democracy Forward, reminds us that we don’t need to be politicians to create change.
The election results show that when people in states have the opportunity to vote on specific policies through ballot initiatives, rather than for candidates, they choose to protect the fundamental right to abortion and reproductive health care, to reject the threat to public education that are voucher programs, and to increase workers’ wages.
Democracy doesn't end when an election is called; it lives through people and communities in this nation dedicated to building a more perfect union.
The power to shape the future is already in our hands — it’s all about finding the courage to take action and make it happen!
