Contribute Now to Americans for Progress
Our democracy exists to express the will of the people. We are the ones who cast ballots that select our representatives. As such, the actions of elected representatives should reflect the will of the people who voted for them, not the interests that paid them.
For that purpose, we seek to raise money for those candidates that take a principled stance against special interests, and who intend to represent the views of the people who put them in office. The race will be difficult, but with everyone chipping in, it is possible.
We don't ask for large donations. $5 means a lot more coming from everyday working people than it does from large corporations. Make your difference here.
