"We can totally win this election, pass game-changing legislation, and build a Progressive Decade. We can still do that." The Movement Voter Project team spells out their strategy for a 2024 win and a New Progressive Era, featuring Black organizing, the Sun Belt, the Working Families Party, emotional intelligence, and Vision 2035. What if we could sustain a long-term Democratic trifecta at the federal level, win 28 state trifectas, and appoint a majority on the Supreme Court?

This LONG but passionate, well-informed, thoughtful roadmap envisions a diverse progressive America and presents a plan for getting there. The Sun Belt is the Future – and it's also the present "Never mind that both Georgia and North Carolina will have incredibly important Senate races in the next two cycles. Both states (along with Arizona and Nevada) have the potential to become consistently blue by 2030 if we continue to heavily invest in them (think of the 10-20 year arc of transformation for states like Virginia and Colorado). Divesting from the Sun Belt and from communities of color right now is lunacy, morally repugnant, and political malpractice. " Why Working Families Party Is SO Important "For those unfamiliar, WFP is a coalition of labor, community, and activist organizations at the state and national level who have joined together in a shared strategy to use elections to build multi-racial working class governing power. ... WFP is doing its presidential endorsement vote in July. ... The deliberate way they are going about their process – centering the need to block the authoritarian right, while also building long-term progressive power – is a principled act of leadership. It is the right thing to do. ... " And over the course of this summer, many voices on the left and within the ceasefire movement, will begin to speak up and say: We desperately want freedom, justice, and peace in Israel, Palestine, and Gaza. AND, we absolutely have to defeat Trump, which means we have to organize people to vote in record numbers for the Biden-Harris team, even with broken hearts. " Abandon Biden? Uncommitted? There's a Difference! "Uncommitted is a strategic effort to build the power of Arab, Muslim, and Palestinian communities and aligned anti-war voters to increase their influence within the only major political party where they have a meaningful chance of making an impact." The Block And Build Strategy: We Choose Us "Voting for Biden is not actually about Biden. As Black Voters Matter says: "It's About Us." " We Can Win and Have Nice Things "We can totally win this election, pass game-changing legislation, and build a Progressive Decade. We can still do that. I agree with most of what Democratic optimist Simon Rosenberg says: We do have a better candidate. We do have a better record to run on. We do have more potential voters. We have won the last three major election cycles (2018, 2020, 2022) and most of the odd-year ones as well. The Republican Party is in many ways a dumpster fire." tl;dr? Scroll down halfway to "ACT III: The Good Part" and check out the quick infographic Roadmap to a New Progressive Era, then down to "Over the longer term" for the Vision 2035 map. "It isn't about the candidates at the top of the ticket. It's about the movement that all of us are building together and the progress we are making. Our country is far from perfect. But we have a real chance to keep making it better. " Happy 4th of July to all.
