Lancaster Stands Up is a progressive organization that works to build independent political power for the people of Lancaster. For too long, our local government has prioritized the wants of the wealthy over the needs of everyday citizens, and it\u2019s time for that to change.\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We need a world where everyone can thrive, regardless of race, place, or class. Lancaster Stands Up is building that future by electing working-class champions and conducting issue campaigns that pressure local officials to stand up for their constituents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The story of Lancaster Stands Up is a story about everyday people getting involved\u2014even if it\u2019s just two hours a week\u2014and building the grassroots force we need to revitalize our democracy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
