What is American Democracy Summit?
American Democracy Summit is the premier nonpartisan event uniting top minds from across the political spectrum to tackle America’s biggest political challenges—gerrymandering, money in politics, election security, and more.
With inspiring speakers, dynamic trainers, A-list entertainment, and cultural influencers, this is your chance to connect with activists, educators, and leaders committed to building a stronger democracy.
More than 1,000 attendees came to ADS 2023, representing more than 50 organizations.
