Americans just want our government to work effectively when we need it. But right now, our families and communities are losing essential programs and services we all rely on. Many of us agree with the principle that we can create a stronger and more effective government, but Elon Musk and DOGE’s efforts to cut and destroy programs that Americans need hurts our families and disregards the core values that still unite us all, regardless of politics.
Work for US is fighting back to lift up the voices of working Americans across the country and make the government work for us again.
Work for US is a campaign fighting to protect essential government services like Social Security and Medicaid and ensure our government works for the benefit of all Americans, not billionaires and corrupt politicians.
Work for US is led by and for American workers who just want the government to work in our best interest. We want a more effective government, but Elon Musk and DOGE’s efforts to blindly cut services and dismantle programs that Americans rely on hurts our families and our communities and disregards the few values that still unite us all, regardless of politics. It’s time the government stops catering to billionaires and starts putting the American people first.
We believe in responsible government and efficient use of taxpayer dollars. But the current wave of cuts by Elon Musk and DOGE aren’t responsible or efficient. Gutting essential services, firing high-performing and experienced workers, and dismantling agencies that care for veterans, protect consumers or deliver social security checks doesn’t lead to real efficiency – it leads to longer wait times, reduced safety, more hardship for citizens, and potentially higher long-term costs. There’s a difference between reform and destruction.
Work for US is focused on connecting with working Americans, elevating their voices, demanding politicians protect workers’ livelihoods and reject cuts to vital programs for millions of Americans. Too often, the voices of working Americans are ignored, disregarded or politicized without real action being taken. Our campaign is fighting to right these wrongs and hold the government accountable to all working Americans.
Across the board, we’re seeing proposals and actions to drastically cut staffing, close offices, limit access, and undermine the effectiveness of vital agencies. For specific examples regarding Social Security, Veteran care (VA), consumer protection (CFPB), and more, please see our Issues page.
