Represent.Us Chapters are the backbone of our grassroots anti-corruption movement
// WHAT ARE REPRESENT.US CHAPTERS?
Represent.Us Chapters are forming all across the country in a nationally coordinated effort to end corruption at the local level. Our goal is to create real and tangible political power by getting millions of Americans – conservatives, progressives, and everyone in between – united, organized and taking action locally to end political corruption. We want to empower you, our activists, by giving you the tools and structure needed to get involved.
If you'd like to join the fight to make our government represent the people, this is the place for you.
// WHAT DO REPRESENT.US CHAPTERS DO?
Represent.Us Chapters are at the forefront of our ground game, working to build the necessary momentum to pass local Anti-Corruption Acts in their communities. Of course, in order to organize ballot initiatives and pass resolutions, chapters first need to build awareness and support in their communities. So groups start by collecting signatures at local farmers markets and festivals. They also make presentations at local civic group meetings, organize movie nights and gather endorsements from community leaders, local businesses and faith leaders. These efforts will help us change the national conversation about corruption as an issue that we can actually solve.
// HOW DO I GET A CHAPTER STARTED?
We are seeking capable leaders in communities across the country. If you might be that kind of leader, please send us an email at grassroots@represent.us or give us a call at (413) 585-8100 x29 and we will help you get started.
» Take a look at our Chapter Leader Guide to help you get started.
// HOW DO I RECRUIT MEMBERS?
Petitioning is a fun and easy way to start recruiting supporters in your community.

// "I'D RATHER TAKE ACTION ONLINE."
If you don’t have much time you can still help us spread the word for our campaign online. This could mean sharing a story of corruption on Facebook, recruiting friends and family to sign on as Citizen Co-Sponsors. You can start taking action online right here!
