Welcome to American Civic Power
You've found a movement — not just a website. Whether you're a lifelong activist or someone who just started paying attention, this is your home. Here's how to make the most of what ACP has to offer.
Who We Are
American Civic Power (ACP) is a nonprofit civic organization dedicated to building an informed, organized, and motivated citizenry. We believe that ordinary Americans — Civestors — hold more power than they've been led to believe. Our work is focused on structural reforms that return power to the people:
- Repeal of Citizens United
- Ranked-Choice Voting
- Proportional Representation
- Protecting the National Popular Vote Compact
- Sensible AI and data center oversight
- Civic education and grassroots organizing
