"The Democratic Party as a whole is not being overtaken by the DSA or Socialists, but is instead made up of a lot of mainstream Democrats around the country." - PTA Director Felix Frisch
We believe Democrats succeed when we speak to and represent the values of the broad majority, not just those on the political fringes. If you agree, join us and sign the pledge today (link in comments).

Winning back the majority means winning back trust. That starts with actually listening to folks on all sides of the aisle and caring about the issues that matter most to them. Proud to have a leader like @Tom_Suozzi , who’s built a career doing exactly that, on our team.

Swing Voters in Iowa, Pennsylvania and Michigan are fed up with extremism in both parties. Politicians that reject extremism and show up in their communities resonate with these voters. The latest report from Welcome Democracy Institute seeks to better understand Obama-Trump voters in these states. welcomedemocracy.org/publica…

The GOP can't defend their record, so they're trying to distract instead. PTA signer @AdamGrayCA is right. Democrats need to tune out the noise and stay focused on what voters actually care about if we want to win in November.

PTA signer @Tom_Suozzi says it best: The rising tide isn’t lifting all boats, it’s lifting the super yachts. We need a fair and competitive economy that expands opportunity for all—not one that disproportionately favors those already at the top.

In his first original and exclusive piece to the WelcomeStack, Ruy Teixeira makes the case that the loss of conservative Democrats is terrible for the party and that candidates pitching "Minimum Necessary Heterodoxy" is not enough.

The GOP’s “brand Dems as communists” strategy only works if Democrats let the extremes define us. We won’t. Common sense capitalism, not socialism. Mainstream, not extreme. That’s what the Promise to America is, and that’s how we rebuild the majority.

The majority of Americans agree on basic issues: safe communities, a competitive economy that rewards hard work, persuasion over division. Democrats win when we focus on these principles, and lose when we don’t. PTA founding signer @AdamGrayCA hits the nail on the head.

Barney Frank’s parting words to Democrats: reform the left to save democracy.
His last book is out today, and this excerpt is only on WelcomeStack:

Promise to America Signer @SenJohnVelis is absolutely right. Democrats needs to ditch the faculty lounge speak and run on more than just anti-Trump. We can win on anti-Trump in 2026, but 2028 is different story.
