  • "We're at a critical juncture -- with an urgent need to build progressive political muscle both inside and outside the Democratic Party -- to change the direction of the USA and its relationship with the rest of the world. RootsAction.org is an online force for helping to fulfill the desires of millions who are seeking a genuinely progressive alternative to the barbarism that is being promoted by the political Right."- Bill Fletcher Jr., co-founder, Center for Labor Renewal
