Trump’s Corruption Gives Democrats A Shot At A Unifying Message
Progressives and moderates alike are signing on to a new pledge to “unrig” Washington.

Today, we launched our Unrig Washington campaign, a bold new standard for Democrats to show voters that as a party we're serious about cleaning up Washington.
So far, 83 Democratic candidates and Members of Congress have joined this campaign.

This regime hands out tax breaks to billionaires and major corporations while forcing costs to skyrocket for working Americans.

Corruption is corrosive. Whether at the state, local, or national level, it causes Americans to lose faith in our government.
That is why we must fight against corruption everywhere we find it and deliver a government that works for you, not against you.
