Here are a few examples of when MPP has joined forces with powerful allies to create change:

Progressives Unite 2020

We pledge to make our case to the American people on why our chosen candidate is the best choice to defeat Trump.

We pledge to focus our fight for the nomination against candidates supported by the corporate wing, instead of fighting each other.

We pledge to come together in state caucuses, primaries and conventions from the first vote in Iowa to the last vote at the DNC Convention in Wisconsin to ensure a progressive wins the nomination and America elects a Progressive President!

Bernie Sanders Campaign Shakes Up New Hampshire Operation

New Hampshire Democrats also believe that Mr. Sanders did not have the sort of organization befitting the candidate who had won the state so overwhelmingly three years ago.

THE TYRANNY of STRUCTURELESSNESS

(1972) As long as the structure of the group is informal, the rules of how decisions are made are known only to a few and awareness of power is limited to those who know the rules. Those who do not know the rules and are not chosen for initiation must remain in confusion, or suffer from paranoid delusions that something is happening of which they are not quite aware.
