Millions Spoke Out Against White House Pressure

We just helped force one of the biggest media companies in the country to reverse course: Disney is bringing Jimmy Kimmel back on the air tomorrow night.

That’s after millions of Americans spoke out against their decision to cave to White House pressure – and over 50,000 of you took our pledge to Turn Off Disney. This news is a sign that we have real power when we take quick, bold action.

How People Power Changed Disney’s Decision

We voted with our pocketbooks and remote controls, making it clear to Disney and ABC that the customers they rely on want them to defend our First Amendment – not help Trump chip away at it.

Together, we changed their calculations and showed all of corporate America that caving to Trump and helping him crush dissent doesn’t pay off.

The Fight Isn’t Over: Defending Democracy Together

But our work isn’t over. Trump and his allies will keep trying to silence critics, muzzle the press, and pressure media companies to fall in line. We need to be ready to push back every time – with even more voices, more pressure, and more people power.

Last week could have been the beginning of the end for free speech in America.

Instead, it serves as a powerful testament that we’re not going to give up our democracy without a struggle – and when we act together, we win.

This is a big win for Common Cause and for everyone who cares about free speech – and it’s only possible because we were able to quickly swing into action. If you want to help us mobilize for big efforts against some of the most powerful forces in our country – and win.
