Hi there,

The media can be the greatest force for peace on Earth. Instead, all too often, it’s wielded as a weapon of war. That's why we have to take the media back. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority – those calling for peace in a time of war, demanding action on the climate catastrophe and advocating for racial and economic justice. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

Pollster: Sanders Is “Moving a Generation to the Left”

HeadlineApr 26, 2016

Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders rallied voters in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Monday, saying he could triumph in today’s contests if voter turnout is high.

Sen. Bernie Sanders: “All over this country, what we have found is that when voter turnout is high, we do very well. And I believe that if there is a high voter turnout tomorrow, we’re going to win here in Pennsylvania.”

A new survey from Harvard University’s Institute of Politics shows Sanders remains the most popular candidate among young people between 18 and 29. Polling director John Della Volpe told The Washington Post, “He’s not moving a party to the left. He’s moving a generation to the left.” Democratic rival Hillary Clinton meanwhile took aim at Republican front-runner Donald Trump during a campaign stop in Wilmington, Delaware.

Hillary Clinton: “So, Donald Trump says wages are too high in America, and he doesn’t support raising the minimum wage. And I have said, 'Come out of those towers named for yourself, and actually talk and listen to people.'”
