Donald Trump's election is a grave setback for our country and what we stand for.

Trump rose to power threatening and bullying vulnerable communities, from immigrants to LGBT people, Muslims, disabled Americans, women, and people of color.

Now, devastatingly, he stands as president-elect. He will hold the immense powers of the executive branch and a sprawling surveillance state.

While many are taking much-needed time to grieve and process, we know we can’t stand down. Our work together is more critical now than ever.

Even in the face of adversity, we still can fight back – and we must. That is what we have always done. That is what Demand Progress stands for.

We have to be ready to organize harder than we ever have. We have to be ready to fight, together.

Sign the pledge: “I’m ready to stand up to Trump and fight back against every unacceptable attack he makes on vulnerable communities and our shared values.”
