Before we rush into the intensity of 2026, I want to take a moment with you — a breath, a look back, a recognition.

The story of 2025 is not only one of crisis— it is also the story of a people who refused to back down. It’s the story of communities who organized, educated, marched, petitioned, built networks of solidarity, demanded constitutional change, and expanded a movement rooted in justice and real democracy

2025 was one of the most turbulent years for our democracy in recent memory. Authoritarian forces gained ground. Corporate money flooded elections at levels we’ve never seen. The courts handed corporations new rights while stripping them from real people. Communities faced the intertwined crises of climate chaos, economic inequality, and political instability — all while billionaires and corporate lobbies bought more influence than ever before.

And yet…

You Helped Turn Crisis into Movement

While our democracy faced ongoing attacks, you helped Move to Amend build one of our strongest years ever. Support for the We the People Amendment (HJR54) grew to 68 Congressional co-sponsors, with a clear path toward 100+ and a Senate introduction. More than 528,000 people have added their voices to the Motion to Amend, endorsements and strong alliances were made as the call to end corporate rule reached new communities and coalitions. Through public education, organizing, and national action, this movement deepened and grew—while millions encountered our message for the first time. See the full story of what we accomplished together here:

A Pivotal Year Ahead

2026 will mark the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence — a moment when the entire country will be asking what freedom, self-governance, and democracy truly mean in an era of corporate dominance. Move to Amend will be ready — because you helped us build the foundation.

Now we need to power the next chapter of this movement

Everything we achieved in 2025 —was made possible because people like you chose to invest in real democracy.

Right now, your support matters more than ever.

2025 wasn’t just about surviving a chaotic year for our country. It was about preparing to lead. Preparing to step boldly into a national conversation with a simple, unapologetic truth: It’s time to declare independence from corporate rule — and it will take a powerful, organized, grassroots movement to make that real.

2025 showed us what’s possible.
2026 will show the country what’s necessary.

And with your support — especially your recurring monthly support — we will rise to the moment.

Thank you for standing with us.
Thank you for believing in this work.

In solidarity,
