Campaign Catalyst Trainings

Because we’re all about building a movement, we offer trainings to leaders and volunteers where they’ll learn how to build and implement effective campaigns in their communities and states to take on corruption, gridlock, and ineffective government.

Learn Something New

Politics can be confusing, but it doesn’t have to be. We break down complex issues—like gerrymandering, dark money, and ballot measures—into clear, simple explanations.

We’ll tell you how these systems work, why they matter, and what can be done to improve them. When you’re informed, you’re powerful.

Why are egg prices so high? How is political corruption fueling the housing crisis?

On our democracy blog, we take a deep dive into current issues and break down how they impact your life, and more importantly, what you can do about them.

Put Knowledge Into Practice

We’re building a nationwide movement to make the government more accountable to the people. Will you join us?

Get Inspired

Making government more accountable doesn’t have to be boring.

Our videos are snarky, hilarious, inspirational, and informative – and they’ve been watched more than 160 million times.

Over the last 10 years, our volunteers, donors, and partners have powered 197 policy wins for democracy in cities and states across the country.

These wins have held corrupt politicians accountable, defeated lobbyists and special interests, and made the government more responsive to the needs of everyday people.
