I'm Joel Lava — a lifelong Democrat, activist, father, and union member. I've been organizing in the streets: Protests. Community actions. Spreading the word and turning frustration into collective action. That's mobilization.

Our country has been turned upside down, and too many leaders have gone missing. We need Impeachment. Accountability. Consequences. And a Congress that fights.

Income inequality has soared, while affordable housing has become as unreachable as a livable climate. Our economy and jobs are being steered by 8 tech billionaires with a God Complex. We live in a country besieged by gun violence, that also fails to provide affordable health care to all its people.

Here's the truth: We already have workable solutions. What's missing isn't policy. It's courage. It simply requires leaders willing to stand on principle and not focus groups.

Take a stand, and take the punches. Leaders who harness the power of their constituents and mobilize for change. I've been doing that work on the ground.

We can't have We the People without — All the People. Toda la gente. 모든 사람들. Բոլոր Մարդիկ.
