We believe every American should have their most basic needs met.
We only care about three things:
Housing. Healthcare. Hunger.
We want action and we want it NOW.
The concept is you maintain your current political party, but are ALSO a member of the 99th. Everything outside of housing, healthcare, and hunger would defer to your primary party.
For example: If you are a Republican, on issues like gun control you would vote in line with the Republican Party. But when it came to issues regarding housing, healthcare, and hunger you would vote in line with the 99th.
Healthcare: we want Medicare for all. 70 % of the nation wants it. It's time to stop arguing and just do it already.
Housing: We want to stop all rent and mortgage payments for one year. We want the federal government to fund small, local programs that are dedicated to ending the homelessness crisis.
Hunger: No American should go without food. We want the federal government to fund small, local programs that are dedicated to feeding all who need it.
Change the system so that every American's basic needs are met. We have lots of ideas, and would love to hear yours too! But we will get there when we get there. Right now our focus is action NOW.
You already are.
Our government has proven this year that they are willing to spend the money! Our party says that money should be spent on action NOW to ensure every American's basic needs are met.
A little bit: Talk about us! Tweet about us! Put a 99 in your bio and when people ask tell them! Ask your friends if they've heard of us! Help us spread the word! The concept of a secondary party is new and unfamiliar, we can change that.
A lot a bit: Help us from home! This is if you're ready to do something NOW. We're looking for people who are willing to be representatives of the 99th Party. If you have an idea to help in another way email us at 99thParty@gmail.com and let us know!
