The Can Kicks Backs mission is to educate, organize and mobilize young Americans in order to promote a sustainable and generationally equitable federal budget.
Every time Washington “kicks the can down the road” by delaying action on addressing the drivers of our $17 trillion and growing national debt, politicians are actually kicking young people and our future. In short, we are that can. The Can Kicks Back is a non-partisan and Millennial-driven campaign with the goal of kicking back at Washington by demanding a sustainable and generationally equitable solution.
Our campaign was launched in November 2012 by a group of five concerned young people and has since grown to a movement of over 100 local chapters in 38 states and thousands of supporters from across the country and across the political spectrum.
The Can Kicks Back iPhone app was designed to keep our supporters informed and engaged. The app provides a set of powerful tools for mobile advocacy. These tools can be calendar-driven so that people can participate in group actions. When its time to act, a notification will be raised on your phone to prompt you to participate in a group action.
Tools included in this release are:
- Phone calls
- Email messages
- Posting to your social network
- Tweeting to your social network
- Pledges
- Petitions
- News
Our Future. Our Fight.
