Working Families Party

The Working Families Party (operating at workingfamilies.org) is a progressive populist political organization engineered for grassroots mobilization and electoral advocacy. Founded in 1998 as a successor to the New Party, it serves as a political home for working-class Americans disillusioned with mainstream bigotry, corporate bailouts, and political inertia. Under the hood, the party operates through local chapters, candidate recruitment, and policy advocacy—focusing on economic justice, racial equity, and democratic reform. This allows working families and allied movements to amplify marginalized voices, elect transformational leaders, and push for systemic change. Backed by grassroots donations and partnerships with allied organizations like Working Families Power, the party prioritizes multiracial coalition-building to challenge the status quo.
