Building Power Amidst Chaos: Major Opportunities in 2026

It’s a new year, but the chaos coming from Washington is only accelerating. Grassroots pressure will be critical in the months ahead in our collective work for peace and justice.

FCNL’s policy and advocacy teams will share the major legislative opportunities we’re tracking, how we are planning to build power to drive change, and how you and your community can plug into these urgent efforts and make a real difference.

Join us Thursday, January 29 at 8:00 p.m. ET! Even if you cannot join, register anyway to receive the recording and resources.

Any specific questions for FCNL?

There are many urgent issues right now. Which of the following concerns are you most energized to act on in 2026?

Dismantle militarism at home and abroad while reasserting Congress’ role in decisions around military engagements. Champion initiatives to reduce military spending and to eliminate nuclear, conventional, and newly emerging weapons. Ensure U.S. commitment to international peacebuilding, diplomacy, cooperation, and human rights at home and abroad. Uphold the community rights and concerns of indigenous peoples, and reform the federal legal and administrative systems to protect tribal sovereignty and self-determination. Demilitarize our borders and reform immigration policies to protect fundamental human rights for immigrant communities, regardless of immigration status. Transform our current cruel and unjust criminal legal system into one that is restorative and rehabilitative. Support gun violence prevention, nonviolent conflict resolution, and community-led safety solutions. Eliminate poverty, structural economic inequity, and health care inequity. Counter the imminent threat of further climate change and support evidence-based mitigation and adaptive remedies.
