MoveOn’s 2024 Election Program launched during our 25th Anniversary Summit in October of 2023—the earliest MoveOn had ever launched an election program. From the very beginning, we understood the challenges of engaging a complex electorate.  That’s why we set out to engage 1.5 million targeted voters in 65 House and Senate districts and 13 key presidential states.  As of this publishing date, we won 38 of our endorsed races, helped curb abortion bans by supporting ballot measures protecting reproductive freedom in Nevada and Arizona, and defeated MAGA Republicans in the…

Vice President Kamala Harris had 107 days to unite the Democratic Party and launch her campaign for president. She made history as the first Black and South Asian woman to secure a major political party’s nomination. And her groundbreaking campaign was carried by Black women and other women of color leaders who came out en masse to donate, organize, volunteer, and vote.  We will not allow their sacrifices, efforts, and hope be erased in this darkness. Add your name to say thank you and that you will keep fighting. Why…

The Nation: I’m an Environmentalist. That’s Why I Can’t Vote Green. WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, MoveOn Political Action spotlighted environmentalists from all around the world condemning third-party spoiler Jill Stein – calling for her to drop out of the race and cease boosting Donald Trump’s bid for the White House.
