National grassroots organizing network. We build power for the multiracial working class.
Spokane just lost 700 homes & businesses. 60,000 people had to evacuate. The polluters that built this crisis are now sponsors of Climate Week NYC. Tell Climate Week: Dump corporate polluter sponsorships. https://peoplesactioninstitute.org/climateweek
Our electric bills are skyrocketing while we deal with record-breaking heatwaves, wildfires, and flash floods. But Big Tech billionaires are raking in profits. It's time for Congress to do something. Are you in? dumpbigtech.org #DumpBigTech
Congress can side with working families OR with Big Tech billionaires whose AI data centers are driving up our utility rates. Aug 9-16 is a week of action to make sure they pick right. Attend or host an event near you: dumpbigtech.org

Comparable countries spend HALF what we do on health care. We spend $5,000 more per person than the next most expensive country (Switzerland). It's time for something different: peoplesactioninstitute.org/m4a
America spends more on health care than any other country on Earth. Are you getting your money's worth?
You can be a successful business owner with a company pulling in $10–20K a month and still not be able to afford health insurance. Julia lived that for 20 years. Now she's on Medicaid, and came to DC to tell Congress: pass Medicare for All. Sign the petition: peoplesactioninstitute.org/m4a
With that $37.5 billion, we could've: 🥦 funded SNAP for 4 months, 👶 closed the child care subsidy gap, or 🏥 covered one full year of NIH research. Why did the House just vote for MORE war spending? Stop this bill in the Senate: peoplesaction.org/WorkingFamiliesNotWar

Electric bills are too damn high... CCAG's Tom Swan breaks down how CT's utility corporations are now on the prowl for more of your cash, and the aggressive bullying tactics they are using to get it. ctmirror.org/2026/07/21/c...
Opinion: CT ratepayers pay the price when utility bullying goes unchecked
Ratepayers cannot afford, nor should we allow, rate cases to be secreted away and decided under undue influence, bullying and threat of reprisal.

Zohran Mamdani: "I believe in Medicare for All — everyone can check it out." In the richest country in the history of the world, going to the doctor shouldn't depend on your paycheck. Tell Congress: we need #MedicareForAll. https://bit.ly/3RLld4E
Proaño: "It could have easily happened to my father, to your father, to your uncle or to your brother." Be vigilant. Show up. July 24 — CHC field hearing, Houston July 25 — Mass action, Houston Justice4LorenzoAndJohan.org
Rep. Castro on the federal fight: "We're going to need to withhold ICE money until they stop killing people." ICE got more than $100 billion in new funding. Freezing ICE hiring is on the table. None of it moves without organized pressure. Justice4LorenzoAndJohan.org
We deserve to breathe air safely. But thanks to the dirty energy industry, we don't get to anymore. So why is a dirty energy industry group a Climate Week sponsor? Tell Climate Week to dump them: peoplesactioninstitute.org/climateweek
"These are American workers who were gunned down by deportation agents." Two working people killed by ICE in one week: Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston, Johan Sebastián Guerrero days later. Mass action July 25 in Houston. Host a vigil where you are. Justice4LorenzoAndJohan.org
In his speech tonight, Trump presented no evidence that elections are "rigged." He discussed documents that straight up contradict his claims. He doesn't want you to trust our elections. People's Action Institute is working to protect them: peoplesactioninstitute.org/protect
Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. The intelligence community confirmed it. The courts confirmed it. Election workers on both sides confirmed it. He is now trying to use a foreign bogeyman to take control of how Americans vote. Don't let him: peoplesaction.org/HandsOffOurVote
Our families can't afford to keep the lights on. Our water is running out. Big Tech is carpeting our countryside with AI data centers — and spending hundreds of millions to buy our elections. TONIGHT, 7 p.m. ET. Mass call to fight back → https://secure.ngpvan.com/Ac9ikvWer0S_ScxMe1WeAg2
$1.5 trillion for war. That's $11,500 for every household in America. Will Congress choose working families, or military contractors? Make sure they hear from you 👇 peoplesaction.org/WorkingFamiliesNotWar
Two people killed by ICE in one week. Both trying to live, work, and provide. Lorenzo, 35, Houston construction worker. No criminal record. Applied for residency. Joan, 26, Maine father. Authorized to work. Not the target. No body cameras worn. Tomorrow 8pm ET: ppls.ac/whatyoucando
Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was killed by an ICE agent in Houston on July 7. He was not a suspect. He was a worker going to a job. National Mass Call for Justice: Wednesday, July 15, 8 PM ET/5 PM PT. Register: workers.fyi/justiceforlorenzo
150 heat records shattered this July 4th weekend. Dozens dead. 700+ heat emergencies. Meanwhile, fossil fuel lobbyists are buying seats at Climate Week NYC. Dirty dollars don't belong in spaces meant to save us. Sign: ppls.ac/climateweek #ClimateWeek #Greenwashing
🚨 Mike Johnson is trying to ram through Trump's SAVE America Act via budget reconciliation — a process ONLY for spending bills. This voter suppression law would block MILLIONS from voting. #SaveOurVote #SAVEAct #VotingRights #DemocracyDefense
🚨 Trump just admitted the SAVE Act is about permanent power. Let's call this what it is: The VOTER ELIMINATION ACT. But in America, voters choose our leaders. Not the other way around. Tell the Senate: Hands Off Our Vote. ppls.ac/HandsOffOurVote #HandsOffOurVote
Patriotism isn't loyalty to a man or MAGA. It's wanting the best for our neighbors. It's building a place we're proud to call home. It's fighting for the people we share it with. Real patriotism = action for the people. #ReclaimPatriotism #July4th #PeoplesAction
"You may not be impacted by this issue, but your friend is." Jovan Jackson of Nevada State Assembly District 6 reminds us that protecting our elections helps us build power together. Take the pledge: ppls.ac/protect

The housing bill passed 358-32 in the House, 89-10 in the Senate. It's not perfect, but it would: • Ban corporate investors from buying up neighborhoods • Cut manufactured home costs by $10K • Help first-time buyers compete But Trump says it's "unimportant."
"People are not showing up because they don't believe their vote matters." Shawn Phillips of WV Citizen Action Group reminds us why protecting our elections is so important. Take the pledge: ppls.ac/protect
