Why This Moment Matters
Across our country, unchecked power is distorting our democracy — and everyday Americans are paying the price.
From executive overreach and election manipulation to insider deals in Congress and rising costs driven by unilateral decisions, our freedoms are being weakened while accountability fades.
That is not the democracy we all deserve.
What Issue One Is Doing
At Issue One, we are working to strengthen democratic accountability so power serves the people — not the other way around.
We advance bold reforms, build bipartisan coalitions, and elevate solutions that reinforce limits on power, ethical leadership, and respect for democratic norms.
Our Work in Action
This year, Issue One has taken concrete steps to protect the Democracy We All Deserve:
- Released the We the People Playbook, a bipartisan blueprint to restore limits on executive power and reinforce checks and balances
- Challenged the culture of corruption in Washington by pushing to ban lawmakers from profiting off insider information
- Exposed how Big Tech uses money and influence to block the reforms Americans want and deserve
- Championed protections for election workers and officials, helping ensure they can run free and fair elections without fear, harassment, or intimidation
How Democracy Gets Stronger
Democracy grows stronger when:
- Power is checked.
- Rules are fair.
- Leaders are accountable to the people.
That is the Democracy We All Deserve — and it requires public engagement to protect it.
