Who are we? Las Vegas artists for Progress are a group of American artists who love the United States of America and are deeply concerned about the Trump Presidency and the harm it is bringing to our stature as a world leader. We believe this administration's actions will do long-standing economic damage and bring new conflicts around the world. We don’t want to waste lives and fortune on bad policy and we will resist terrible policy. We seek peaceful, yet meaningful methods to defend our long-standing American ideals. The president has no mandate to push an agenda that pushes our nation backward decades. After the 2016 election, there have been many people who actively post on social media and share articles. The aim of this group is to turn those posts into real action that fights for our beliefs. What do we believe in? Affordable Healthcare as a human right. Immigration Reform that is fair, humane and fiscally responsible. Respect for foreign Nations and their cultures Women's Rights including Reproductive Rights and Wage Disparity Full Recognition as LBGTQ persons as Equal Citizens under the Law. Recognition of Man-made Climate Change and the Future Public Health and Safety Issues associated. Maintaining Federal Arts Funding as essential to preserving and enriching our culture. Strengthening Civil Rights Peace Respect Dignity The United States Constitution How will we affect change? We will use the indivisible guide (https://www.indivisibleguide.com/) as our guiding manual for how to organize and make change in our community. We will actively engage with our elected members of congress to hold them to account. This will include phone calls, in-person visits to local congressional offices, attending town halls and community outreach. When the midterm elections of 2018 begin we will seek candidates that will actively promote our values and work to get these people elected.
