TRANSFORMING POLITICS FROM THE GROUND UP
In a political landscape dominated by special interests and entrenched power, Welead OC stands for something revolutionary: Progressive women's leadership in America's most challenging districts.
​
​Welead OC identifies, trains, and supports extraordinary Progressive women Democrats who are ready to run in red and purple districts where traditional party structures have failed to invest. These women—deeply connected to their communities and driven by progressive values—represent the future of Democratic politics.
We Have the Power!
We can be down by the numbers but we are far from out. Collectively we have the power to drive change by resisting the actions of the Trump/Musk administration. Did you know you don't have to be elected to make a difference in your communities. It takes organizing and action. Remember --- we outnumber them!
Here's Something We All Can Do!
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (H.R. 1) barely passed the House by just ONE VOTE (215-214) on May 22nd. It is now headed to the Senate.
​
We are all feeling a bit on the helpless side, to say nothing of overwhelmed by the actions (and inactions) of both the current administration and Congress. It never seems to stop, in fact, seems to get worse with each passing day.
​
BUT, there is something we can do now and that is to sign a petition, alerting 7 GOP, very vulnerable Senators who are up for re-election in 2026 — Senators Susan Collins (ME), Thom Tillis (NC), Dan Sullivan (AK), Jon Husted (OH), Ashley Moody (FL), John Cronyn (TX) and Joni Ernst (IA), to vote NO on H.R. 1 - the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, that is anything but. Passing this bill will bring irreparable damage to anyone not making a zillion dollars a year, for years.
Our petition will be sent to 7 GOP Senators, who will need to be held accountable in 2026, should they decide to support Trump over their constituents. They're on recess this week. We want to ensure that upon their return, we will have gathered enough signatures to alert them --- voting in favor of this working family crushing bill, will be met with consequences come 2026.
​
This massive bill creates a two-tiered America: one set of rules for the wealthy 1% who never worry about losing healthcare or paying bills, and another for working families who struggle every day. While the rich get more tax breaks, working families face cuts to the services they depend on.
The combination of massive tax cuts for the wealthy and deep cuts to programs for working people will explode our national debt and deficit, leaving our children and grandchildren to pay the bill. Meanwhile, this legislation hands even more unchecked power to the presidency at a time when working families need representatives who will stand up for them.
We can do this!
