Extremism lost in PA because neighbors showed up—not pundits. Hear from RWB’s Sherry Luce and Stacy Kunkel on how moms stepped up at school board meetings and flipped the results. Proof that showing up really works!

This Veterans Day, the best way to honor those who served is to protect the care they earned. But Trump is trying to gut veteran healthcare for billionaire tax breaks.

Voters made clear that they are over the mean and divisive culture wars. Candidates who supported making school safe for all kids are IN. Candidates who ban books and attack trans kids are OUT.

For too long, local races like school board have been ignored. But we know that change happens locally. And when extremists go low, we go local! Congrats to all of the RWB members who won their races this week!

Some extremist candidates tried to hide by rejecting Moms for Liberty endorsements—but they still campaigned on book bans and attacks on LGBTQ+ kids. We called them out and supported candidates who actually care about public education and safe classrooms for all kids instead.

Common sense and human decency are still our values — and extremists can't take that from us without a fight. 👏
