Main Street
Majority
We're building America's first national small business influencer network — turning trusted voices on Main Street into a coordinated force for economic accountability and political change.

The US Chamber and NFIB have spoken for small business long enough — and convinced everyone that Main Street is conservative. It isn't.
Today's small business owners have more in common with their customers than with corporate America. The same forces squeezing them from above are squeezing their customers from below. Main Street and the people it serves are in this together.
Main Street Action is building the infrastructure to prove it — recruiting and deploying small business owners as trusted economic messengers in battleground states: in local media, on social platforms, in the halls of power, and at the ballot box. These aren't spokespeople. They're neighbors, employers, and community anchors who make economic arguments land in ways no politician or pundit can.
battleground Plan 2026
Main Street Action is building a nationwide network
of trusted small business owners who use their voices, relationships,
and credibility to shape public opinion, hold politicians accountable, and mobilize voters in the communities that decide elections.

Elevating Black & Brown Messengers
Black and Brown small business owners are trusted community leaders with deep relationships in the neighborhoods that decide elections. Main Street Action organizes these business owners as civic influencers who use their voices, platforms, and businesses to engage voters, hold elected officials accountable, and drive participation in the democratic process.

Why Small Business?
They're the most trusted constituency in America that no one's tried to organize in earnest. They make affordability real. And they're rooted voices with real skin in the game.
Cross-partisan credibility — Main Street voices land with progressives, independents, and conservatives alike.
Built-in reach — They talk to hundreds of customers a week, manage venues perfect for meaningful convening, and nurture relationships with local media.
Hardwired urgency — They're living the policy impact on payroll, rent, healthcare, and community well-being.
But not every business owner starts in the same place. Some are ready to tell their story to a reporter. Some will host a candidate forum. Some will knock on doors. Some just need a reason to show up. That's why the Main Street Majority program meets validators where they are with a clear ladder of engagement that moves business owners from awareness to advocacy to action, at whatever pace fits their lives and their community.

We Fight Together
Trump’s agenda is steamrolling working families—slashing health care, gutting economic protections, and handing power to the ultra-rich. But there’s one thing standing in the way: an organized Main Street.
