The American Union is a union of swing voters, willing to ignore divisive partisan politics and work together to fix problems in the United States. When 3.5% of Americans unite for the 2024 election, our votes will decide which party controls the US House, Senate, and Oval Office.
With this leverage, we can bring the politicians and parties to the negotiating table. In exchange for our winning bloc of votes, Washington will have to deliver real solutions before the election—or face the consequences on November 5. Read more about this innovative strategy in this blog post.

Mass incarceration is a moral stain on our nation; some of the included reforms will:
The political parties use guns and abortions as wedge issues to make Americans fight; there’s a middle ground:
The military-industrial complex is the standing army that the Framers feared. To promote peace in the world, we’ll:
Welfare has a specific definition: health, happiness, prosperity, and can be promoted with unconditional basic income (UBI)
There are 101 policies within the Trump–Biden Peace Plan (read more on this page) and no one is expected to like every single one of them. In 1787, none of the Framers liked everything in the Constitution, but they compromised because America was worth saving.
America is still worth saving and your help is needed! Become a basic member for 25¢/day ($7/month) and a good-faith pledge to vote together on November 5.
