About Us

——ABOUT US——

 

Americans Take Action is a network of populists who believe that the American government should represent we the people once again, that the economy should work for all of us, and that the internet should remain free and open for generations to come.

Americans Take Action is working every day to restore free and fair elections in America so that every citizen has the freedom to vote and votes matter more than dollars in elections once again. We also are working to create a purpose-driven economy where all work is respected and rewarded, as well as ensuring that the internet remains free and open for generations to come.

Americans Take Action is a force-multiplier for all of these campaigns, raising the level of active support among the American population for any number of potential solutions to the problem of corruption in government, an economy that’s not working, and threats to internet freedom. Through the use of new online organizing technology as well as old-school organizing tactics, we will help drive attention and activism toward a growing list of coalition partners, who’ve all joined the fight to save democracy in America.
