Power isn't in a throne. It's in our hands.
It's in our neighborhoods. It's in our unions. It's in our communities.
On March 28, we flex that power. Together. #NoKings2026 https://social.demcast.com/s/mRUyqOqR

$3.48 a gallon. Every state. Today.

S&P 500 down.
Dow tanking.
NASDAQ bleeding.
Gas up 60¢ in ONE week.
92,000 jobs gone.
