Our Revolution Los Angeles Joins the Movement for a People's Party.

Our Revolution Los Angeles Joins the Movement for a People’s Party. Bernie 2020 Co-Chair Senator Nina Turner Shows Support for MPP

Los Angeles, CA -- Our Revolution Los Angeles announced today that an overwhelming majority of its members have voted to form a major new party and it is joining the Movement for a People’s Party. The chapter represents more than 10,000 people in Los Angeles. They are asking other Our Revolution chapters and progressive groups to join MPP and the fight for a people’s party alongside them.

Former Bernie 2020 Co-Chair and Our Revolution President Sen. Nina Turner also showed her support for the Movement for a People’s Party in a series of tweets last week, including retweeting, “Our future is in a #PeoplesParty” and MPP’s website. Turner is joining MPP on an upcoming national call. Prominent Sanders surrogates RoseAnn DeMoro and John Cusack shared their support for a new party as well.

Our Revolution was founded by Sen. Bernie Sanders to reform the Democratic Party after his 2016 presidential run. Following a second rigged Democratic primary against Sanders and his supporters in 2020, Our Revolution Los Angeles’ members decided that the Democratic Party is irredeemably corporate and must be replaced. By a 72 percent majority, they resolved to leave the Democratic Party and build a major new party free of corporate and billionaire money.

Our Revolution Los Angeles is calling on Our Revolution chapters and progressive groups nationwide to poll their members on joining the Movement for a People’s Party. Together they will co-host an informational meeting with interested chapters and groups on Thursday, May 14, to discuss and plan the new party.
