Overview
- MoveOn has issued a stark warning to Democratic leaders Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries, citing 'deep problems' with the party's base over perceived inaction against President Trump and Elon Musk's influence.
- A recent MoveOn survey revealed that 78% of its members feel Democrats are not doing enough to oppose Trump, with 49% less likely to volunteer or donate due to this perceived inaction.
- The letter criticized Schumer for supporting a GOP spending bill, which many grassroots activists view as a failure to leverage Democratic power effectively.
- MoveOn urged Democratic leaders to elevate younger, more outspoken voices within the party to better connect with disillusioned voters and counter Trump's administration more aggressively.
- The group emphasized the urgency of the moment, warning that grassroots donors and volunteers may withdraw support unless Democrats adopt a united and bold opposition strategy.
