Welcome to Progressive Victory

Logotype-LBlue.png

Progressive Victory is a new and growing political community that uses online media to engage people and challenge traditional methods of political organizing.

We work with online content creators to bring new people into the political process and give them the tools they need to make their voices heard. We are committed to building a community of new-to-activism volunteers and empowering them to become lifelong activists.

Our unifying mission is to ensure progressive candidates are elected and progressive policies are implemented. We value unity above all and seek to connect progressives across the ideological spectrum with the common goal of creating a more just world.
