Pitch
We can defeat autocracy and build toward a new Progressive Era — but only if we organize a movement powerful, popular, and compelling enough to win hearts, minds, and governing majorities.
The right has built a more effective “movement model.” As a result, they’ve gained grassroots, cultural, and institutional power. It’s time for progressives to catch up.
To do that, MVP is investing in bold, long-term efforts to:
- Strengthen year-round local organizing in every key state and district for 2026, 2028, and beyond.
- Scale up progressive media to shape worldviews and win hearts and minds en masse.
- Transform the Democratic Party through the vision, agenda, and leadership of working people.
