Gary Lucks is an environmental attorney, activist, and author of We Are the Power: To Win the Future, a book designed to mobilize citizens across all districts for the 2026 midterm election. Drawing on extensive campaign experience, Gary presents practical strategies, tools, and tactics for grassroots activism, including community outreach at farmers' markets and transit stops, as well as virtual fundraising events. Emphasizing that everyday people possess untapped potential to defend democracy, the book encourages readers to get involved and includes a list of activist organizations and groups that support local activism.

We talk about:

  • Viewing civic participation as a fundamental duty
  • Providing a toolkit for individual activists
  • Pacing activism efforts across two-year election cycles
  • How campaigns can step up their volunteer recruitment and mobilization
