We’re an all-volunteer organization based in Washington, D.C., but our reach is nationwide. Find out more on our About page.
2024 was not our year, but there are many elections to come and many fights to be won.
NOPE is regrouping and regaining strength. We’re already fundraising for the Wisconsin Supreme Court race, the first significant election of 2025. We’re publishing weekly, curated lists of actions you can take to resist the destructive and unlawful actions of the Trump administration. (Sign up for our bulletins here.)
We won’t give in to despair or defeatism. Together, we will weather this storm, cultivating hope and continuing to say NOPE to those who threaten our democracy. Your courage, energy, and belief in a better future help us remember why this work is worth doing.

if only we’re brave enough to see it,

We focus our resources — and your time and money — on states where there are Senate or House seats to defend or flip to blue and where there are electoral college votes critical to holding the Presidency in 2024.
We are also active in selected State elections — for example, we are canvassing for state house candidates in PA now.
Our carefully vetted partners work in communities of color with under-represented voters, immigrants, and youth, empowering them to fully participate in their communities and helping them register and turn out to vote for Democrats up and down the ballot. Supporting these groups promotes racial justice, fights voter suppression, and wins elections. Our partners for 2024 are: Somos Votantes (Arizona), Black Voters Matter (Georgia), Michigan People’s Campaign (Michigan), Make the Road Action (Nevada), Carolina Federation (North Carolina), One Pennsylvania (Pennsylvania), and Voces de la Frontera Action (Wisconsin).
We do the research so you don’t have to.
Give to carefully vetted candidates: Fourout of five Senate candidates in the battlegrounds won!
Give to our grassroots organizing partners: Democratic candidates consistently outraise their GOP opponents, so targeting the grassroots is strategic. Building their capacities - especially with recurring donations - yields dividends that last beyond a single election cycle. Donate to our partners here. Meet them here.
“I think of NOPE as a political investment advisor. It helps me get the best return on my money — when the return I’m looking for is democracy, progress, and justice.” - Alice Winkler, NOPE donor
