We put our proven policy expertise and our network of grassroots supporters into action to strengthen our democracy against the challenges it faces today.

When We the People come together, we can make a real and lasting difference. Taking action with Common Cause Florida means joining a powerful movement in pursuit of a democracy that gives all Floridians a voice in the decisions that shape our future.
For more than 50 years, Common Cause and our members have fought for the democracy we deserve.

Common Cause works...
In the Legislature
At the national, state, and local level, Common Cause works with officials from across the political spectrum to pass proven, common-sense solutions and stop attacks on our rights. Our team members and supporters are frequent visitors to the U.S. Capitol and statehouses across the country, meeting with decision-makers to discuss target legislation. We have a long history of making lasting change through the legislative process.
In the Courts
Common Cause has played a key role in some of the most impactful court cases over the last several decades. We work at every level of the country’s legal system, including the U.S. Supreme Court, and have consistently demonstrated that through hard-hitting legal action, we can make real progress on the democracy issues that count—like fair redistricting, government transparency, and campaign finance.
On the Ground
Common Cause’s power lies in its 1.5 million supporters nationwide. We mobilize our members at lobby days in statehouses to advocate for key reforms and shut down harmful bills; as Election Protection monitors, helping voters each Election Day; at pro-democracy rallies and demonstrations across the country; and much, much more. We know that when our members turn out and work together, we get results.
And Beyond...
Common Cause is committed to leading the most important fights for our democracy, no matter where they take place. We show up in many ways—including online, where our members contact legislators in support of target bills, spread the word about our work on social media, and report harmful election disinformation.
