PEN America Governor Ron DeSantis has banned hundreds of books across the state of Florida, censoring themes centered on race, history, sexual orientation, and gender in an effort to silence the voices and narratives of marginalized communities and further push his MAGA vision for a “Great American Comeback.” Just last month, a Florida school banned “The Hill We Climb,” the moving poem Amanda Gorman recited at President Joe Biden’s inauguration, saying it would now be off-limits to young readers after one parent claimed the poem was “indoctrinating” students. The…

Washington, D.C. – Today, MoveOn released a new video as part of its Stop Funding Fox campaign to spotlight consumer brands that are still inexplicably advertising on Fox News, despite the network’s track record of promoting lies and propaganda. The latest “Bought and Paid For” video highlights a segment on Fox News from June 12 where Fox News broadcast a bottom-of-the-screen chyron that accused President Joe Biden of being a “wannabe dictator who arrested his political rival.” This segment ran the same day as Donald Trump was indicted in Florida…

One beautiful way to celebrate Pride is by proudly wearing, waving, or displaying in your yard merch that supports the cause. Yet, just one week before Pride Month was set to begin, Target caved to an orchestrated attack by anti-LGBTQ+ bigots and pulled items from their 2023 Pride merch collection—which featured items produced by small businesses owned by queer and trans creators, designers, and artists—off their shelves. It is completely unacceptable for Target to abandon our communities to appease right-wing extremists. Sign our petition calling on Target to bring back…

MoveOn activists across the country are demanding that corporations including Subway, AT&T, General Motors, and Comcast stop funding Fox News, in efforts to hold the network accountable for dividing Americans and spreading disinformation, bias, lies, and hate. Cable companies and advertisers provide two major revenue streams for Fox News, thus enabling the lies they spread.

Washington – In response to the passage of the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023, MoveOn Political Action Executive Director Rahna Epting released the following statement: “President Biden and Democrats did the work both to stop a MAGA-led push for default that would have dragged America into a terrible recession, and to prevent MAGA Republicans from gutting the social and economic progress that MoveOn members have fought for over the last two years. The budget deal that President Biden secured is by no means perfect, but it protects jobs, veterans’ benefits,…
