Join Volunteer Blue for an exclusive conversation with Ben Wikler, former chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin.

Despite leading a state once dubbed a "democracy desert" due to extreme Republican gerrymandering, Wikler guided Wisconsin Democrats to a historic string of unlikely victories.

In this session, Wikler will share insights from his book, This Is the Plan: How to End America's Meltdown and Save Democracy, which details a step-by-step strategy to defeat authoritarianism, elect transformative leaders, and pass laws that serve the common good.

Drawing on his experience as the former Washington Director of MoveOn.org — where he led the grassroots defense of Obamacare in 2017 — Wikler will outline how to make America dictator-proof and defeat MAGA at every level of the ballot.

What you’ll learn:

• The hidden structures of power that shape American lives

• The art and science of winning highly competitive elections

• A people-powered path to protect and restore democracy

Wikler’s key actions for volunteers in 2026

• Elect action-oriented Democrats who are ready to govern effectively

• Support candidates committed to systemic, structural government reforms

• Mobilize for key races, from competitive congressional seats down to crucial state legislatures and governors' mansions

This 30-minute Zoom includes a live Q&A where you can ask questions and learn how to get involved in this critical election year.
