the moment is Now!
We Are Up To The Challenge, When We Are United
This is a moment that will require each and every one of us to defeat the threat of authoritarianism and advance the vision and values of the American people, to unite our country around the promise of a democratic society and future. We must summon the courage of our ancestors, embrace the responsibility of our inheritance, and work like hell to lay the foundation for a new generation of leadership. We must work together to secure our democracy and light the path toward a freer and fairer world where we can all thrive.
We are not there yet, and we should take no moment for granted, especially in these turbulent and unprecedented times. For too long, we have allowed those in positions of power to dominate the narrative, control our institutions, divide us as a nation along political lines, and erode our faith in each other and our democracy while dismantling our institutions and taking away our freedoms and rights. This will be a time now marked by aspiration and hope, something we have all needed for a long time. Sadly, this will undoubtedly be a time mired by racist, sexist, and hate-filled rhetoric by those who will challenge the qualities of political candidates by disparaging personal characteristics rather than addressing the policies and proposals that represent two opposite visions of the future. One presents a future to strengthen and support the upward mobility of the middle class -the other is explicitly laid out in Project 2025 to weaken democratic institutions undermining civil liberties and freedoms. We can have healthy, constructive policy debates, but this kind of vitriol only serves to further tear apart the fabric of this nation by inciting fear, anger, rage, and violence, and our participation diminishes us all. At an individual level now is a time for deep personal reflection and calling on our better selves to reject these tactics and choose not to participate in behavior unbecoming of all of us. America needs an intervention and now is the time to demonstrate that we the people of this country are up to the task.
We must move together, unified as Americans and resolute that regardless of party, we still believe in democracy, to put hope above despair, center love, not hate and committed to doing the hard work to ensure a future that serves all of us! How we show up in times of trial are the ones that count the most.
Our best days lie ahead if we choose to rise to meet the challenges before us. There is too much at stake if we simply let the election play out. We must vote and turn out the vote—our lives and the existence of American democracy depend on it! We must confront misinformation and disinformation, reject hate and division. We must engage in meaningful and respectful dialogue across differences rooted in our shared core values and desires. We must stand up to those who say our brothers and sisters are our enemies to fuel their desires for power and personal gain at all our expense. Democracy is an ever-evolving practice. It is not a foregone conclusion or some utopian vision for the future. Only together will we get the world we need and the one we all deserve!

STRUCTURAL REFORM
IDAHO'S HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
WHOSE COURTS? OUR COURTS!
We’re at the forefront of the battle for a just, equitable, and democratic society. The challenges we face today—democratic backsliding, the rise of authoritarianism, deepening polarization, and the failure to secure our most aspirational goals—underscore the urgent need to reinforce the fundamental pillars of our democracy. These pillars are not merely theoretical constructs; they form the bedrock upon which we can build a thriving, inclusive, and resilient nation. (See: Democracy Road Map)

IDAHO'S HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
WHOSE COURTS? OUR COURTS!
The United States stands at a precipice as the judiciary, once a bulwark of democracy and a critical check on executive and legislative power, is being transformed into an instrument of political will.
The framers of the Constitution designed the judiciary as an independent arbiter to balance the powers of the other branches of government. However, recent rulings by the Supreme Court and lower courts, dominated by judges with political allegiances have begun to dismantle these checks and balances. These rulings are systematically undermining the regulatory frameworks that protect civil liberties, public health, and environmental standards (Brennan Center for Justice, 2022).

United By A Common Goal
United By A Common Goal
Our work is not about establishment politics. We advocate a bold agenda for systemic change and hold all elected officials and those seeking office accountable to an agenda of the people, not a party platform that has increasingly ceased to meet the needs of the majority of Americans.

Our belief is that long-term change happens when people across the spectrum of our diversity meet each other where we are to find our shared values, needs and interests, to rise above partisan politics to work together to build a majority people powered movement that rejects authoritarianism and ready to fight for and build a durable democracy together shoulder-to-shoulder.
