 Stop the Coup 2025\n\nhttps://www.stopthecoup2025.org/about\n\nStop the 
 Coup 2025 is a group of multi-sector activists and organizations stepping 
 up to protect our democracy, imperfect as it is, to counter Project 2025. 
 We can stop this, but only if we educate ourselves and our community about 
 the danger, and develop strategies to FIGHT BACK.\n\nStruggle and conflict 
 are essential for confronting and overcoming injustice. We honor 
 and\nemulate the successes of international and home-grown movements for 
 democracy by adhering\nto nonviolence in our strategies and tactics. \n\nIn 
 working toward a functioning democracy, we reject as fundamentally 
 anti-democratic all\nforms of state-sanctioned violence, bigotry, and 
 systemic discrimination, especially\ndiscrimination directed at people 
 because of their perceived disability, immigration status, race,\nreligion, 
 financial/employment status, gender identity/expression, sex, and 
 sexuality.\n\nOur allies include Center for Media and Democracy's PR Watch, 
 Center for Popular Democracy Action, Center for Progressive Reform, 
 Chromatic Black, Council for Global Equality, Court Accountability, Doñas 
 Academy, Freedom From Religion Foundation, Gays Against Guns, LatinX+, Make 
 the Road NY, National Federation of Federal Employees (NFFE), Political 
 Research Associates, Reclaim Pride Coalition, Rise and Resist, Sero 
 Project, True North Research, #Unify Movements, and Vocal-NY. Our launch 
 co-sponsors included Human Rights Campaign and People for the American 
 Way.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2024/06/08/18867191.php
