Sign The Letter
President Trump and his allies have spent the past 100 days attacking our rights, undermining our democracy, and enriching the ultra-wealthy, while driving up the cost of living for working-class Americans. It’s a deliberate strategy to distract and divide us while they seize power and wealth.
Open Letter From The American People
When Donald Trump ran for president, he promised the American people we’d be “winning so much [we’d] get tired of winning.” But a hundred days in, it’s clear: the only ones winning are billionaires, big corporations, and the well-connected—the rest of us have been left behind.
This administration has worked overtime to help corporations and the ultra-rich pocket even more profits at our expense.
And to pay for it, they’re taking a sledgehammer to the parts of government that help everyday people. They’re going after our healthcare. They’re going after our Social Security. They’re gutting services that millions of us rely on just to survive.
While the ultra-rich sit comfortably at the top, ordinary people are drowning, struggling to pay rent, trying to afford medicine, and watching the cost of groceries skyrocket.
It’s easy to dismiss the past 100 days as just more of the usual politics or everyday dysfunction in D.C. But what’s happening now is far more serious than that.
This administration isn’t just targeting the laws that protect us—they are attacking the very idea that every person is worthy of protection.
They are defying court orders and locking people up without giving them a fair chance to defend themselves.
They are gutting decades-old protections against discrimination and guarantees of opportunity for all.
They are stripping workers of their right to bargain for fair wages, benefits, and safe working conditions.
They are rolling back environmental protections, allowing corporations to pollute our communities with toxic waste and contaminated water.
They are increasing the cost of living for everyday Americans and ruining the livelihoods of working-class people, farmers, and small business owners with tariffs while laying off thousands of federal workers and gutting the services they provide.
All of these attacks—and more—are a direct assault on all our rights and our freedoms. It’s a direct affront to the belief that everyone deserves to live with dignity, be safe in our communities, and have a real shot at a better future, no matter our net worth, who we are, or where we come from.
In the face of these attacks, we will not be silent. We will not be divided. We will unite for what we believe in.
But resistance is just the beginning. We must also write a new story—one that isn’t rooted in fear or division, but in possibility. A story that looks beyond what we’re against and focuses on building something better together.
In the next 100 days and beyond, we are demanding that our elected leaders—in Congress, in state legislatures, and in our towns and cities—commit to The People’s Promise—an affirmative vision that stands in stark contrast to the harmful agenda we’ve seen from this administration.
We’re calling on our elected leaders to honor the power entrusted to them by the people—and to help deliver an America with:
- An Economy That Works for Everyone: All workers earn a livable wage and have the right to unionize. Americans can afford essentials like quality healthcare, housing, and childcare.
- A Government for the People: The wealthiest among us pay their fair share in taxes. Every child can count on the quality education they deserve, and every person has access to a strong safety net they can count on when they need it.
- Equal Rights & Opportunity for All: Nobody’s freedom can be taken without due process. Our votes are protected and counted. And our neighborhoods are free from hate and discrimination.
These aren’t Republican or Democratic issues—they’re what every American deserves. They’re the bare minimum for a government that works for everyone.
Across the country, people are rising up. Workers are organizing. Young people are mobilizing. Voters are rejecting hate and demanding real solutions. From rural towns to big cities, from red states to blue, we’re stepping forward—not just to resist Trump’s chaos, but to build something better in its place.
And this summer, we’ll come together in peaceful protests—not just to speak out, but to demand that every leader, at every level, deliver on these promises.
Trump’s entire agenda runs on dysfunction. He came to power by exploiting rightful resentment at a broken system that isn’t working for anyone. Because if people had affordable housing, good schools, and healthcare that didn’t bankrupt families—his lies wouldn’t land. His playbook wouldn’t work.
That’s why we need The People’s Promise. We need elected leaders who will do the work Trump and his administration refuse to do. Leaders who will fix what he broke, strengthen what he tried to destroy, and finally deliver the promise of a government for all of us.
This is our country. This is our promise. And we’re here to make it real.
