State Democracy Defenders Action brings together a bipartisan all-star team of experts in safeguarding democracy. We fill three key gaps in the fight against election sabotage and autocracy:

• We go on offense against democracy deniers who break the law, including through our innovative program of outside public support for criminal prosecutions.
• We work with national, state and local allies across the country to defend in real-time the foundation of our democracy–free and fair elections.
• We help shape the long-term strategy to defeat autocracy in 2025–and beyond.

We convened political and thought leaders from across the ideological spectrum and hundreds of Americans for a summit: Autocracy in America – A Warning and Response. This was a unifying call to action and a moment for hope. Watch the panel discussions.

Coming out of the conference, co-hosts, partners and others have signed on to 10 principles that guide out shared cross-partisan alternative vision of where we want to take our country in 2025 and beyond. View the Freedom 2025 – 10 Principles.
