WE ARE CALIFORNIA.

And we’re proud of it. 

Because California is like no other place in the world. And it’s because of who we are and how we have fought to make California better for all. Regardless of race, class, age, gender, or who we love, we all want a good life, quality education, safety for our families, and a place to call home.

We know there is more to do. Corporate billionaires, bigots, and authoritarian bullies see our vision for a California where everyone has the freedom to thrive as a threat. They want to shut down progress toward a strong California for all. We can’t let them.

The time for action is now. Will you throw down with us?

ARE YOU WITH US?

Let’s build a California where everyone thrives, contributes and belongs.

Who We Are

They are the problem

Powerful corporate billionaires, opportunistic politicians, and dangerous authoritarian forces see Californians as a threat to their wealth and power. They attack our values of inclusion and community, attempting to divide us and obscure the real causes of the challenges we face. The big lie they tell is that we are to blame - working people, people of color, immigrants - when there is not enough housing, resources for our schools and communities or dirty air and water.

But we know it’s their greed that is undermining our progress toward a more inclusive and just economy and democracy. The only antidote is us.

You are a part of the solution

Over the past 60 years, WE Californians have united to build power and secure a brighter future for everyone. Our belief in a California for all has led so many of us to fight for policies that protect immigrants, prioritize care over punishment, raise wages, improve education, and move towards homes for all and expand healthcare. Through victories and setbacks, we’ve moved closer to our vision of California for all. 

When we work together, we strengthen our democracy and leave no one behind. By protecting the dignity of all people, regardless of race, class, age, gender, or who we love, we ensure that California works for everyone. Our opponents call it being “woke.” We call it being California.
