For over 40 years, (People For) has successfully battled the right wing’s efforts to reshape society. Through advocacy and litigation People For halted attempts to ban books, use religious-based texts in public schools, and appoint conservative activist judges. They work closely with other leading progressive organizations to mobilize Americans to take action against the conservative right.
People for The American Way members are passionate about their progressive causes and they are energized like never before. Educated, affluent, and informed, they do not sit idly by while witnessing the degradation of the environment, civil liberties, and public programs. They take action by donating to liberal organizations, reading progressive journals, and actively participating in the democratic process. Urbane and sophisticated, members are ardent supporters of the arts, widely traveled, and well read.
Dedicated to preserving the diversity and freedoms guaranteed by our constitution, these progressive thinkers consistently donate to dozens of liberal organizations. They are also responsive to fundraising appeals including, environment , LGBT causes, civil/equal rights advocacy groups, political fundraisers, cultural/artistic institutions, public broadcasting entities, and publications that support their world view. |
