Resisting fascism, fighting for freedom
“We the people” means all the people
Every American deserves freedom and opportunity. We believe in a government that works on behalf of the public interest—not the private interests of Musk and other billionaires. And our courts should provide justice for everyone—not just the rich and powerful. Donald Trump’s MAGA movement threatens all of us. People For the American Way is fighting the lies that divide us and building a future where everyone can thrive. Join us!

Resisting the Project 2025 Presidency
Resist Project 2025, a roadmap for immediate resistance to an incoming Trump administration and for a strong pro-democracy movement for freedom and justice. The plan calls for assembling a unique coalition of young progressive officials, faith leaders and artists to take prominent roles in resistance and reform because we know none of us can afford Project 2025.
The future we’ll build together
We envision an America where all Americans have an equal say in elections that aren’t distorted by disinformation or bought by billionaires, where people have control over their own bodies, where courts administer justice to all, and where nobody has to live in fear because of their skin color, faith, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, ancestry, or political beliefs.

We’re making

it matters most
