We’re a nonpartisan high-impact group of students empowering communities to defend our democracy.
We’re a youth-led task force of 6 campaigns organizing students to resist autocracy and fighting alongside our allies to demand, and deliver, a more just & inclusive democracy for our generation.
We began in the wake of January 6th, 2021 as a localized effort to protect & expand student rights and power. Today, we lead national work to center youth in the fight for grassroots pro-democracy reforms, enact the systemic solutions that would prevent another Jan 6th from happening, and pull our wider community back from the footsteps of fascism.
Our campaigns include:
- Students for Voting Rights: Fighting money in politics, voter suppression, and the two-party duopoly.
- Safeguarding Article V from Exploitation: Stopping a dark money-funded attempt to rewrite the Constitution & our core freedoms.
- Project FOIA: Training student activists to use transparency laws to keep themselves safe & hold power accountable.
- DC Democracy: Fighting for DC statehood, resisting attacks on our autonomy, and advancing critical democracy reforms in our capital!
- Frontline for Freedom: In coalition with partners, we're helping train students to launch campus campaigns to resist advancing autocracy, attacks on their rights, critical funding, and to fight for the thriving democracy we deserve!
