THE PEOPLE'S WAVE

This April, the 2019 People’s Action Convention will bring together member groups, allies and supporters from across the country for 3 inspired days in our nation's capital. Our exciting program features elected officials and movement leaders, campaign sessions that broaden our knowledge and strategy, skills workshops that arms us with tools to build power at home, and opportunities for people-led caucuses.

We will launch the 2020 platform and advance our long term agenda.
