An open letter to the U.S. Congress

New progressive Senate Democratic leadership needed to fight corporate interests

268 so far! Help us get to 500 signers!

Here's the letter body: The Democratic Party is facing a pivotal moment, and it is clear that the current Senate leadership under Chuck Schumer is failing to meet the demands of the times. Schumer's willingness to compromise on core principles and his reluctance to engage in bold, progressive action is deeply concerning. The Republican budget bill that Schumer is set to approve represents a capitulation to corporate interests and a betrayal of the values that the Democratic Party claims to uphold. By voting for this bill, Schumer is enabling the exploitation of workers, the degradation of the environment, and the further consolidation of wealth and power in the hands of a few. It is time for Schumer to step aside and allow new, more progressive leaders to take the reins. The Democratic Party needs Senate leadership that is uncompromising in its commitment to social and economic justice, environmental protection, and the rights of marginalized communities. Only then can the party truly represent the interests of the people and work towards creating a more equitable and sustainable society. The challenges we face are too great to be met with half-measures and compromises. We need a Democratic Party that is willing to fight for radical change, to dismantle systems of oppression, and to prioritize the well-being of all people over the profits of corporations. Schumer's approach of appeasing the establishment and maintaining the status quo is no longer tenable. It is time for the next generation of progressive leaders to step forward and chart a bold new course for the Democratic Party. Only by embracing a truly transformative agenda can we hope to create a better future for all.
