A Trump Third Term Through an Article V Convention is Possible, and Groups are Trying
Suppose Congress fails to amend the 22nd Amendment, and the Supreme Court rules out the switcheroo scheme.

How We WorkOur Generation Deserves True Democracy!

True democracy is multiracial, multigenerational, and cross-class. True democracy doesn’t include corporate interests buying elections or gerrymandered districts. That’s why we have to create the democracy our generation deserves.

To do this, the Task Force has three fundamental functions: researching democracy issues, community organizing, and establishing strategic alliances with other pro-democracy organizations (to optimize resources in pursuit of common objectives).

Advocacy

Researching issues relating to our national initiatives and educating the public about them

Organizing

Speaking with people, conducting polls and petitions, and holding public events and town hall meetings

Coalition-Building

Forming strategic alliances with other nonprofits to work towards our shared goals

We're integrating these three crucial aspects of movement building to strengthen our democracy!

We’re grassroots and entirely student-run! We also don’t take any corporate or partisan contributions. So we’d appreciate any support and would love to get you involved in the fight to demand a just democracy!
