Red Wine & Blue's TroubleNation is in all 50 States!
Women are standing up against extremism
Red Wine & Blue’s nationwide organizing program, TroubleNation, has reached a major milestone by expanding into all 50 states! TroubleNation now has 672 groups (and growing every day) in all 50 states – more than double that of the extremist organization Moms for Liberty. With the midterm elections around the corner, TroubleNation groups are evenly divided between red and blue congressional districts nationwide.
"Taking back power from MAGA requires winning the suburbs. Every day, suburban women who haven’t been politically active before, contact Red Wine & Blue to find out how to make a difference. We help them connect with one another, quickly grow their ranks, and take action together. There’s been a gap in local organizing infrastructure for too long. Women understand that the local level is where we have the most power – and we intend to use it."
- Katie Paris, founder of Red Wine & Blue
“The growth of TroubleNation has far exceeded even our expectations, which is in sharp contrast to groups like Moms for Liberty that are in decline,” said Missy McGinnes, Director of Distributed Organizing at Red Wine & Blue. “Since the inauguration, we’ve seen a surge in engagement, adding 148 new groups. While pundits may say that people aren’t taking action, what we’re seeing on the ground tells a very different story -- people are organizing and mobilizing in greater numbers than before.”
Red Wine & Blue launched TroubleNation in September 2023 in response to the increasing demand for local organizing support among women who felt disconnected and alone. TroubleNation is a network of independent local groups across the country that are affiliated with and supported by RWB. You can search for a local TroubleNation group by entering your zip code or you can get help starting your own group. TroubleNation is a full service, organizing support system that provides one-on-one coaching, new group orientation, small-group, customized training for group leaders, monthly happy hours, and continuous engagement from the Red Wine & Blue team.
