Emergency CPR: Democracy Needs an Intervention
2025 Democracy Emergency:
Why Have We Declared This Emergency?
In a post-democracy environment, National Intervention's electoral interventions would cease to exist.
There are clear, fact-based reasons why democratic institutions in the United States are at risk of failing.
We aim to prevent that outcome, along with the tragedies and suffering that could follow.
We hope you do, too.
This is the Urgent Action:CPR: Critical Participation in Recovery
If you are an individual wondering how you can possibly make a real impact, read on.
Also, in response to the reality of this emergency, for the first time ever, we are opening our model to other organizations.
Just follow the simple sign-up instructions below and we'll train your folks immediately.UPDATE: YOU may now fund our volunteers working to activate nearly 500,000 non-voters in Florida's upcoming Special Election to fill TWO EMPTY US SEATS.
WHY OUR MODEL WORKS:People who don't vote, don't trust anyone who would run for office.That's why candidates can't seem to get more than 5% of people who quit voting to participate, even in such close elections.
Since National Intervention exists without a dependency on giant moneyed interests, our volunteers are trusted at the door.And that's how our model activates more than 65% of all non-voters when they see that just one "sober" candidate is on their ballot.
Yes. You read that correctly.
Our program activates an astonishing average of 65% of people who otherwise would not have voted.
"YES! I/we want to donate to the program!"Do what we do. Today's national sense of urgency also means that we have thousands of potential volunteers to reach those who won't otherwise vote, and get them to the polls.
The problem is that we simply cannot possibly train or coordinate all the potential volunteers in so many high-stakes states without your help right now.In a system of addiction to power & money in politics, pre-purchased elections can leave over 100 million eligible voters too uninspired to participate.
Add to that reality, the fact that millions re fraudulently removed from eligibility as voters and are unable to restore their active voter status.
But, instead of millions of constituents being tuned-out of the election, we could be turning them out to vote in record numbers.
WHAT YOU CAN DO:
1. ORGANIZATIONS
Commit your organization to adopting National Intervention's non-voter activation model. A Rapid Response Team will immediately begin working with you to set-up "pop-up" chapters and train volunteers wherever they are needed most. Simply contact us here with the subject: "Rapid Response").2. INDIVIDUALSGo to our nationwide Map of Chapter Hubs by state and connect with yours. As we are making live updates to frequently shifting needs, you may find that contacting our national headquarters works, too.
3. ORGANIZATIONS and INDIVIDUALS
By funding the support for precinct-by-precinct volunteers who are committed to face-to-face conversations, we are able to deliver the only message in the country that undermines all the noise on every screen, billboard, mailer, and air wave generated by the billions in campaign and political ad-spending in US elections.
(If you are considering partnering with us with a very large independent contribution, please contact us here with the subject: "Partnerships").
Member support is how we have remained interdependent in our recovery work, no strings attached, and how we make history, close election after close election.
So, please do join Sobriety Sponsors nationwide and commit whatever time, volunteers, and financial support you can, while we still have time to activate millions more.

Not Worth the Risks: Why We Still Suppress Our Digital Footprint
Why does National Intervention suppress its digital footprint? Why so behind-the-scenes?
Online and on social media, National Intervention encourages supporters to avoid the short-term gains of clicktivism and focus on the long-term benefits of analog, not digital, relationships. Why is this our policy?
It's true! We focus on in-person human interactions when possible and safe, and we ask our chapters, affiliates, associates, and members to keep our digital presence rather light. In fact, a driving ethos in our work is that no one takes credit for our accomplishments, which overlaps nicely with both the anonymity of the 12-step traditions and the hope that our relationships can be built with neighborhood-based bonds that are free from any of the troubling consequences of:
-increased screen time
-digital-only movement building
-anti-democratic trends in social media data-mining abuses, cyber-bullying, artificial intelligence manipulations, risks to personal safety, identifying data, mental health, and overall well-being linked to social media or its algorithms,
-digital addiction trends and proven harm from social media to specific groups, as well as known damage within any general populations
Other reasons vary. Malcolm Gladwell once claimed, "The revolution will not be tweeted." In today's crowded landscape of constant digital information, National Intervention has experienced the many benefits of relying on digital connections less, and investing in interpersonal, live, and face-to-face connections much, much more.
Trust
Our primary constituency has been the sometimes 50% or more of the population who can, but often just won't, vote. People who quit voting don't tend to trust anyone who would run for office. Along with that mistrust is the sense that large, slick organizations pay canvassers to knock on doors and convince the household to again give their money and power to others, to giant orgs who may only be in it for their own aggrandizement. We don't encourage a giant, slick image or organization for our work. Instead, we want our local chapters to actually know their neighbors and those in their precincts, counties, and congressional districts. If the revolution won't be tweeted, it's because it has to be as organized or more organized than the system of greed that runs our lives and world. That means trading the shortcuts of digital "organizing" for the hard, but meaningful, work of building real and lasting relationships and, subsequently, building the chapters of our organization that rely on the infrastructure of those relationships. For us, this approach has been much more durable, reliable, and formidable than feeding data-miners, evermore-shortened attention spans, and clicktivism as viable ways forward.
When our volunteers meet nonvoters at their doors, they affirm their choice to look for ways to end their otherwise toxic, abusive, co-dependent relationship with politicians and their corporate sponsors. Instead of shaming our neighbors and fellow citizens for feeling overwhelmed with political ads and election choices ranging from bad to worse, we want them to see that we understand the powerless feeling among those who don't feel inspired to participate in our system. We want to show them we understand the symptoms experienced by those living under the control and abuses of an addiction system, and then show them exactly why we now test candidates running for office for the addiction to corporate power and money in politics. When non-voters avoid elections because they don't know who to trust, the Official Sobriety Test gives them a way to support recovery from the onslaught of money in politics.
Money & Power
There has been a five-fold increase in political add spending in just the past three general elections. Fewer and fewer voters are afforded the the time, energy, and resources required to properly investigate what is true and what is false. Amid the multi-billion deluge of election information, disinformation, misinformation, and mass for-profit media (which is only required to drive up stock value via advertising dollars, not necessarily report all the facts), one natural effect is that would-be voters cannot possibly know what to believe is real, and so they are inclined to skip voting rather than make the wrong choice. We have known for years that pro-democracy advocates must find a way to undermine the power of all this money dumped into the industry of our elections.
National Intervention has found, that --across the board, across all demographics of nonvoters, and across all our chapters' regions in the United States-- the single most effective way to undermine virtually all of the mess, manipulation, and confusion sown by our massive elections industry, is to knock on a door and talk about who may be bought, for sale, or vulnerable to the control of corporate power and money that intoxicates and addicts far too many of those behind the wheel of our democracy.
Malicious Use
The investigative mission of the folks at The Center for Humane Technology (CHT) and their podcast, Your Undivided Attention, has corroborated or influenced our approach to digital vs. analog organizing options. One episode, "Rock the Voter", focuses on the harmful role digital participation can play in the public discourse, discusses social media's addictive and manipulative underbelly, and how imbalances of power and the concentration of data for nefarious or for-profit interests can overwhelm democratic institutions. More recent investigations also imagine scenarios in which online interactions with AI could aggregate massive sums of potential voters unaware of the manipulation, or the agenda behind it.
In addition, another episode from the CHT goes into detail about the many ways addiction in general has taken root in our system and some methods for recovery, which we aim to replicate wherever possible.
We encourage other organizations and change agents to help us search for ethical and uncorrupted means to work with the best of social media and digital organizing without the negative effects. One way to participate is to enroll in the Foundations of Humane Technology course at CHT. We'll see you there!
For us, the goal is to replace the internal personal void that initially invites all addiction with the kind of connection to one another that science has shown eliminates our vulnerabilities to addiction, the need for its intoxicating substances, and its eventually disastrous control of everything and everyone it touches. More on these practices of connection in place of addiction can be found in the work of leading addiction and recovery scientist, Gabor Maté.Fundraising
National Intervention is almost entirely membership-funded by small donors across the country. We do understand the frustration of our chapters and members who want to use a large-scale digital presence to raise more money from many more potential members. It's of course attractive to raise more resources to support more chapters succeeding in their recovery work. For now, we remain committed to building our organization in real time, with real people, in real communities, neighborhoods, workplaces, and precincts. Despite the draw of the virtual, the personal and interpersonal realm has been where virtually all our most transformative power has been concentrated. So support your volunteers here and start knocking on doors! -
Taryn Filha published National Intervention Volunteers in These 5 States Need You in SoberBlog 2022-10-22 13:35:16 -0400
Our Volunteers in These States Need Your Help
Our members know the reasons we do not endorse candidates. They know the reasons why we are a face-to-face organization, not a screen-to-screen performance. There are, of course, some differences between the one million non-voters in the US who have already decided to vote when they meet a National Intervention volunteer in their neighborhood.
But, one thing almost all people who've quit voting report is this:
They don't trust anyone who would run for office.And trust is the issue. People break-up with candidates, with our entire political system, because, in many ways, and in the experience of many in the US, it has simply been a toxic, co-dependent relationship. When someone uses and abuses the power you give them against you, you tend to sour on that relationship.
That's why even the most dedicated candidates with the best platforms and the most diligent ground games, the ones who knock every door and talk with every constituent, can only get 5% of those who don't vote to show up to the next election. Here's the thing: Our volunteers still activate over 65% of those who otherwise will not vote when just one candidate on their ballot is not too "under the influence" to be safely behind the wheel of democracy.
It's also why National Intervention doesn't want to appear "slick" online. We don't support a digital presence in place of an inter-personal community presence because we know that non-voters don't feel very trusting of the same old cookie-cutter look and feel of campaigns that look heavily-funded. Why? Because it begs the question, "Who exactly is behind all that funding?".
Not surprisingly, the near-total control over our elections of deep, dark money in politics has only served to solidify both our national mistrust and the erosion of our shared truth. And right now, there are electoral races all over the country between two kinds of candidates:
a) Those who have proven to us that they are not "under the influence" of corporate power and money in politics, and
b) Those who say they are free from that influence, but can't or won't prove it.
Perhaps the common ground, the shared truth, that does bring together almost all US constituents, is the profound desire to simply remove powerful moneyed influence from our government. And maybe that's why more candidates than ever have decided to pass our Sobriety Test, ignoring the long-standing demands of their party's commitment to the corporate masters who bankroll their campaigns.
Passing our test isn't what brings our democracy a true recovery from greed addiction.
What makes that happen is an intervention, and that means working together to draw strong boundaries together.
And that means volunteers knocking on doors to have real conversations with those who otherwise wouldn't know there was a candidate on their ballot worth their vote.
This is what undermines the power of nonstop ad spending. We only undermine what's on every screen, billboard, mailer, and airwave when we connect to one another and realize we share the common need for a system free from the addiction to power and money in politics. If you long for a way to neutralize the sheer volume of constant paid-ads around every corner from which non-voters have already tuned-out, and then get those folks to the polls, then this is our plea to you:
We need you to join our volunteers and/or support them with the resources they need to meet this massive bloc of citizens in this country who can (but otherwise won't) vote.
Remote participation is possible.
Most importantly, though:If you are, or can be, physically in Florida, support the intervention work in the upcoming special elections and join the new chapters in Florida now. Iowa, Pennsylvania, Nebraska, Colorado, or California, sign-up to join those doing the work of recovery for our democracy. If you're unable to pick up a packet and learn how to effectively, safely connect with the more than 50% of those who don't vote in these states, then please do consider contributing to our Emergency Democracy Fund so that we can provide the basics to those who will brave any conditions to make sure 65% of non-voters can commit to participating in this election, and our recovery, instead.

71% of This Bill's Sponsors Also Passed the Sobriety Test
Sponsors of identical US House and Senate bills aim to prevent Wall Street from turning a vital and precious resource into a for-profit commodity. As with private commodities like medicine, energy, and food, Wall Street will now be free to buy, sell, and trade water.
The first law from Congress to allow the private purchase of water from billionaire and corporate farmland owners to cities passed in 1992. Due to the impact of climate disruption, including drought and radically shifted weather patterns, as well as major water-eliminating practices, like fracking, water is not only a new commodity on the markets, but also a scarcity.
My father warned me that water would become a monetized limited commodity in my lifetime and we’ve been inching towards this moment ever since https://t.co/56HaZALPhP @business @KimChipman1
— Erin Brockovich (@ErinBrockovich) December 7, 2020Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA 17th District) has authored a bill, The Future of Water Act, to prohibit the purchase, sale, or trade of water as a private commodity, and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), has introduced the Senate's version of the bill, identical to Khanna's. In total, 12 out of 17 initial co-sponsors of the bill have passed National Intervention's Sobriety Test (NIST) for addiction to corporate power and money in politics.
Clean, drinkable water is one of our most basic human rights. Today, @SenWarren and I introduced the Future of Water Act that will protect our water and prioritize human needs over corporate profits.
— Rep. Ro Khanna (@RepRoKhanna) March 22, 2022"If you were wondering what happens when candidates who are not under the influence of corporate campaign cash become your representative in Congress, it's that they fight to keep Wall Street from sucking-up and selling all your water, " says Darcy Lundstrom, an organizer who has worked to activate non-voters in southern California, including in Khanna's district.
"The thousands of non-voters who finally turned out to vote after candidates like Katy Porter, Ro Khanna, and Cori Bush all passed their Sobriety Tests, are the voters who make the difference in these elections. Without these voters' enthusiasm for National Intervention, we wouldn't have these legislators, and without these legislators, we wouldn't have these bills," says Valeria Marquez, a Student National Intervention Coordinating Committee (SNICC) coordinator.
Other national organizations, like Food and Water Watch and the National Resource Defense Council, point out the importance of protecting water as vital to the public interest. A recent Biden administration EPA decision echoes a Trump-era failure to keep the rocket fuel chemical waste, perchlorate, out of drinking water in the US, and 26 states have found their residents are exposed to it. To pass the NIST, National Intervention asks candidate's to support language that would affirm in the US Constitution that "corporations do not have the same constitutional rights as natural persons," a protection that currently allows corporations the right to poison water or profit from it, as long as profits are maximized for shareholders.
As some congressional maps have yet to be passed and approved, the US Supreme Court and a number of states' courts and legislatures continue to determine whether voters in several states will have the opportunity to vote for a candidate who is not too "under the influence" of wealth and power in the political and electoral systems.
