We refuse to give up.
We refuse to believe the lie that nothing we do matters.
We refuse to feel hopeless.
We refuse to allow despair to drive us into inaction.
We cheerfully refuse. by Leif Enger

This cycle, they've spent $1.7 BILLION helping elect corrupt politicians who'll do their bidding.
We must stop billionaires from trying to buy power.
