Common Future

A woman in a work jacket leans on her pickup truck at a rural gas station at dusk, looking down an empty highway.

Time left to change who holds power

--Days--Hrs--Min--Sec

Election Day:

Trump promised lower prices. You got the bill.

Higher gas prices. Risky wars. A Congress that won't say no. November is your chance to put a check on this administration, and it starts with electing Democrats.

01 / 06Promises vs. your life

Trump asked for the keys. Look what he did with them.

Trump promised prices would come down on day one. He promised to end wars, not risk new ones. Trump promised to drain the swamp. Now Trump wants you to blame someone else.

A couple at their kitchen table late at night, sorting through bills and grocery receipts under a single lamp.
  • Donald Trump is president.
  • His party runs Congress.
  • Trump owns the results.

You don't have to accept the excuse. In 2026, voters decide whether this administration keeps a rubber stamp in Congress, or finally faces a check on its power.

02 / 06The receipts

Their press releases say “winning.” Your receipts disagree.

These aren't our numbers. They come from the administration's own federal agencies.

03 / 06What's at stake

Four broken promises. One chance to answer them.

For each one: what Trump said, who's paying for it, and what a Democratic Congress will do about it.

  1. A mother holding her young son watches a military transport plane from an airport window at dawn.Promise 01

    Peace and restraint

    Trump promised to end wars. Military families are still waiting.

    Who pays
    Every new commitment made on this administration's watch is its responsibility. Service members carry the risk and taxpayers carry the bill, while Congress looks away.
    What Democrats will do
    Democrats will demand clear goals, real limits and a vote before anyone else is sent into harm's way.
    Help put oversight back in Congress
  2. A mother in hospital scrubs pays at a grocery checkout while her toddler sits in the cart.Promise 02

    Everyday affordability

    Trump promised lower prices. You got the bill.

    Who pays
    Officials celebrate headlines. You're the one standing at the register.
    What Democrats will do
    Democrats will go after price gouging, lower costs for working families and stop policies that quietly push expenses onto your household.
    Fight for a cheaper cart
  3. A high-voltage transmission tower looms over a snowy neighborhood at dusk as someone walks a dog.Promise 03

    Reliable energy

    The richest energy nation on earth, and you're still bracing for the next spike.

    Who pays
    This administration owns an energy policy that leaves your family exposed at the pump and on the power bill.
    What Democrats will do
    Democrats will invest in every source that works, strengthen the grid and give households prices they can plan around.
    Back affordable energy
  4. An empty congressional hearing room with a single witness table facing the dais.Promise 04

    Public accountability

    Trump promised to drain the swamp. The GAO still lists 38 high-risk areas.

    Who pays
    When you make a mistake at work, there are consequences. In Washington, a rubber-stamp Congress means nobody answers.
    What Democrats will do
    A Democratic majority brings back real oversight, hearings and subpoenas.
    Make them answer

04 / 06Our plan

Where your money goes.

Elections are won in a handful of close districts. We focus every dollar there, and publish what we spend so you can see it working.

  1. 01

    Target the close races

    House and Senate seats that decide who controls Congress.

  2. 02

    Put organizers on the ground

    Local field staff who knock doors and turn out voters.

  3. 03

    Tell voters the record

    Ads and mail that show voters what this administration actually did.

  4. 04

    Show our work

    Spending and results published for every supporter to see.

Neighbors fill folding chairs in a school gym for a community meeting while a woman stands to speak.

05 / 06You are not alone

You're fed up. So are millions of your neighbors.

  • Every time you pay more at the pump or read another headline out of Washington, you're told there's nothing you can do. That's exactly what Trump is counting on.

    Common Future is teachers, nurses, veterans, small-business owners and retirees who decided to stop shouting at the news and start building power. We back Democrats who will check this administration and fight for the things families actually feel.

  • A teacher sits on a desk in her empty classroom after school, looking out the window.
    Teachers
  • A nurse in scrubs holding a travel mug walks out of a hospital garage at dawn.
    Nurses
  • A veteran in a field jacket sits on his farmhouse porch steps with his dog at dusk.
    Veterans
  • The owner of a small hardware store stands behind her counter at closing time.
    Small-business owners
  • A retired man with a newspaper and coffee at his kitchen table in the morning.
    Retirees
  • We don't need everyone. We need enough of us, in the right districts, before November 3.
