Support These Crucial Ballot Initiatives!
WCDP members unanimously endorsed two ballot proposals – one to get money out of politics (MOP UP Michigan), and one to better fund education (Invest in MI Kids). Let’s work together now to make sure these proposals get on the November ballot!
Our Democracy Is Not For Sale!
MOP UP Michigan needs to collect 356,958 valid signatures to get the proposal to get money out of politics on the ballot. Can you help make it happen?
Learn more, sign up to help gather signatures

Red for Ed: Love Beats Greed is a two‑week, statewide push to get Invest in MI Kids on the 2026 ballot and fully fund Michigan’s public schools through a fair share tax on the ultra‑wealthy.
Sign up for one or more 2‑hour shifts to help collect signatures. Our Washtenaw County goal is to fill 750 shifts locally scheduled for February 14-28!
