I feel hope for the future

Creating a world where everyone can thrive is possible when we come together and dream. Creating a world where everyone can thrive is possible when we come together and dream.

Dear MoveOn member,

I'm Jensine, a young, queer Latina, a daughter of immigrants, and an organizer. I work on the MoveOn Petition Platform Team.

Growing up, I watched as my family and community experienced injustice after injustice. And I know I am not alone.

This is one of the many reasons why I'm so passionate about organizing and building community and power for our most vulnerable and systematically oppressed communities.

Andra, you are an organizer, too. And petitions are a powerful tool to bring our communities together to fight for the change we wish to see.

The more than four years fighting back against Trump's racism, sexism, misogyny, xenophobia, Islamophobia, homophobia, and transphobia were exhausting.

So, when a multiracial, multigenerational coalition of voters came together to elect a Democratic majority in the 2020 election, securing the White House, Senate, and House, I felt hope for the future.

It gave me more space to dream about what the world could look like: A world where everyone has a permanent roof over their heads, food in their fridge, access to clean drinking water, and access to free, quality health care. A world where people get paid a living wage, get to live free from white supremacy, and so much more.

Creating a world where everyone can thrive is possible when we come together and dream. And we don't need to wait for elections to push for the change we want to see. We can do it now.

Thanks for all you do.

We have an opportunity to make progress, but only if we give it our all to call for bold progressive legislation to expand health care, solve the climate crisis, address systemic racism, and more.

Yes, I'll chip in $5 a month.

No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.
