Pushback Network

Pushback Network
is a national collaboration of indigenous, grassroots organizations and networks committed to building bottom-up, state-based alliances that change both the composition and levels of participation of the electorate.

We emphasize strategies to empower underrepresented constituencies: people of color, poor and working class communities, and young people.

Pushback Network envisions an authentic participatory democracy through which true social justice can be achieved. We seek a democracy that creates opportunities for ordinary people to make real contributions to the political decisions that affect their lives.
