Doing politics differently
CCI Action brings people together to push for a government and an economy that work for people and the planet.
We’re thousands of members strong across the state – from Iowa’s rural areas, small towns, and big cities.
We do grassroots issue organizing and work in elections.
We’re about changing “business as usual” politics and taking on the corrosive influence of big money special interests.
We’re about energizing, engaging, and bringing real people into the center of our political system.
Building power for the people and places we love
We’re pushing back against policies that harm our people, planet, and democracy. We’re pushing for bold solutions our communities need.
We’re working together—side by side—fighting for:
a true multiracial democracy
clean water
climate action
racial justice
healthcare for all
elected leaders who stand WITH us on these issues
It’s up to us
CCI Action members know that no one candidate or political party is going to move our People & Planet First agenda for us. It’s up to us to engage and deliver through:
Issue organizing to meet new people and work together to take actions that make change and build hope
Grassroots lobbying to be the much-needed people’s voice at the Statehouse, county boards, and city councils
Expanding our people power to reach and engage a lot more people in the state
Trainings to take our grassroots leader-led organizing to a higher level
Electing people’s champions to elected office to work with us.
