What We Do
Majority Action is a research and organizing hub that ensures these choices work for the majority, not just the powerful few. We operate at the intersections of capital markets, corporate accountability, and social movements because we believe capital strategies must be part of the movement for change. We organize with investors and communities on the ground to build a fair and balanced economy—changing systems to work for all of us.
Join us as we democratize economic power to advance climate action, racial justice, and workers’ rights.
Majority Action’s Role in Protecting our Future
Investor power is one of the least understood—and yet most impactful—levers for change.
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
What We Do
We focus on the overlooked nuances most critical for systems change, offering practical pathways to build collective power through capital strategies.
Through research, investor organizing, and campaigns that bring together investors, social justice organizations, and frontline communities, we’re building a financial system grounded in accountability and participation.
We work with:
Asset owners and pension fund trustees to demand stronger stewardship from the financial institutions managing their money.
Impacted grassroots communities and labor allies to connect frontline realities with financial power.
Movement partners and policymakers to align capital strategies with long-term public value.
We advance strategies that:
Use research, education, and narrative change to show how race, labor, and capital markets shape and reinforce one another- and why transforming these relationships is essential to building economic literacy and participatory power
Organize with leading pension funds and foundations to ensure climate and racial inequity are fully and accurately factored into investment decisions and long-term financial projections
Organize a cross-movement effort to ensure AI’s transformative potential benefits the many by putting safeguards in place that protect climate action, racial justice and worker rights to help secure a future that reflects our collective priorities and shared values
Shine a spotlight on the outsized influence of the largest asset managers—whose investment decisions and stewardship choices shape corporate behavior across the economy. We make their actions visible, hold them accountable, and mobilize stakeholders to demand they use their power responsibly
We’re organizing for economic democracy to ensure that the money meant to secure our futures stops fueling our collapse. A future where everyone has an opportunity to participate in, shape, and benefit from the economy, not just survive it.
