Hillary Clinton Launches Organization To Support Trump Resistance
Guess who just joined the RESISTANCE.
Former Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton on Monday launched a new political organization – Onward Together.
Clinton’s political action committee will fundraise for prominent progressive groups that are leading the resistance to Trump.
In an email to supporters and on Twitter, Clinton revealed the news pledging to contribute to the “remarkable” spirit of activism in the early months of the Trump administration.
“I believe more fiercely than ever that citizen engagement at every level is central to a strong and vibrant democracy,” she wrote.
“To support this wave of grassroots organizing, we’re launching Onward Together, an organization dedicated to advancing the progressive vision that earned nearly 66 million votes in the last election. Onward Together will work to build a brighter future for generations to come by supporting groups that encourage people to organize and run for office.”
These are the five groups that the organization will initially raise money for: Swing Left, Emerge America, Color of Change, Indivisible and Run for Something.
We’re launching Onward Together to encourage people to get involved, organize, and even run for office. https://t.co/8exooosvZ5
