JUST RELEASED: #BeyondMAGA, our new study of 12,000+ Trump voters, reveals Trump built a coalition, not a cult. Only 38% of his 77 million voters say being 'MAGA' is important to them. We identified 4 distinct types of Trump voters—each with different motivations and worldviews.

When reporters go to write about how these service candidates keep setting new marks, it would be good if they reserved a few lines for @echerniack, who's done more than anyone to support this movement of service leaders over the past decade+ in our country through @new_poli.

Important reminder in the wake of political violence and Charlie Kirk’s assassination: social media can make support for political violence look bigger than it actually is.

Immediately after the 2024 election, More in Common surveyed 5,000 Americans and found:

👉 Heavy social media users are nearly 4x more likely to justify political violence than light users.

Billionaires have taken over Texas and taken over America — but together, we can take power back for working people.

[NEW REPORT] A new @MoreinCommon_US report finds that while 70% of Americans feel a responsibility to connect with people who have different backgrounds and beliefs, a lack of opportunity stands in their way. https://t.co/11UchDISwM (1/3)

Child care being a question in 2 debates is absolutely unprecedented, and truly a testament to all the moms and caregivers who have spoken out and made their voices heard.

I mean, just look how far we've come in this election alone. We've gone from neither presidential candidate answering the damn question to what, ~7 minutes entirely about it!? 🤯

Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex explains why she and the Archewell Foundation were drawn to our report with @GeenaDavisOrg on how moms are portrayed in TV, and how the TV industry can show up for moms.

"Working moms are paid 62 cents to the dollar for what working dads are. And it's almost feeling punitive at certain point, when you're a mom and you're juggling so much and caring so much, when you wanna be supportive in the best way possible" - Meghan.

[Reshma Saujani @reshmasaujani]

I'm so proud of @MomsFirstUS' collaboration with the @GeenaDavisOrg, made possible by Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex and the Archewell Foundation.

All we are asking for is multidimensionality. 📺

Thank you to @VanityFair's @vanderhoofy for the exclusive!

We have a few ideas:

✅Child care
✅ Paid leave

Moms are fired up and ready to fight to win these basic supports. Would love to hear @POTUS lift them up!

Excited to be at #SXSW hearing @MeghanMarkle___ and @19thnews talk about @MomsFirstUS @GeenaDavisOrg research on moms on TV. Not all moms are thin, rich, and have bifurcated work and family lives.

[Erin Vanderhoof @vanderhoofy]

turns out that Geena Davis is not only a very cool person to call up for a chat, she is also an extremely thoughtful feminist! most fun interview i've done in a long time

[Moms First @MomsFirstUS]

Today, @MomsFirstUS + @GeenaDavisOrg released a first-of-its-kind study on how moms are represented in TV — and what we want to see next — made possible by Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex and The Archewell Foundation.
