Organized Power In Numbers, a pro-worker Organization says the multi-racial working class voted for itself and expects Congress to deliver on prices, wages and a path to citizenship
As Democrats celebrate early midterm results, Organized Power In Numbers (OPIN), warned that multi-racial working class voters pushed back against Trump’s agenda without giving either party a blank check.
Neidi Dominguez, Executive Director of Organized Power In Numbers released the following statement:
“As Democrats are starting to take victory laps, it’s important to contextualize the moment. For two years, Trump terrorized communities, separated families, and killed people in the streets for daring to stand in solidarity with their neighbors. Trump’s pro-billionaire, mass deportation agenda had a very real electoral cost we’re seeing play out in front of us. This election isn’t about the working class coming home to the Democrats. This is about them choosing themselves and their neighbors and demanding the government work for them, not the billionaire class. Neither party should take the multi-racial working class for granted.
Democrats won the House tonight. Now they have to earn it by delivering lower prices and higher paychecks, making billionaires pay what they owe so that money funds public schools and public services instead of private armies for authoritarians, and creating a path to citizenship for our immigrant neighbors.”
Organized Power In Numbers works at the intersection of worker power and digital and data-driven organizing to help movements reach millions of people, invite them into movement, and level up campaigns that win for workers, their families, and their communities. OPIN utilizes online and offline base building and organizing strategies, comprehensive campaigns, strategic litigation, communications, and policy advocacy to win concrete demands that improve the conditions of workers’ lives and promote civic engagement at the local, state, and national levels, with a focus on the South and Southwest.
