Who are we?
We're a group of Americans living in Switzerland.Many of us have long admired Swiss democracy, and our worry has turned to horror as we have watched America's democracy begin to unwind.We want to bring awareness to Swiss and American audiences of the dangers facing one of the world's largest democracies.We are a non-partisan group: if you're for democracy and human rights, we are with you.
What do we believe?
We believe American democracy is under threat. The newly installed President has ignored court orders; threatened newspapers, universities, lawyers, judges, and businesses; he has rejected the friendship of other democracies and allied himself with Putin's Russia.Experts from across the political spectrum are sounding the alarm.But there's no better time to step up and take part.There are more than 32,000 Americans living in Switzerland. Our countries have historically close ties; the American Constitution was a direct inspiration for the Swiss one. And America is Switzerland's largest trading partner after the EU.Americans in Switzerland, and our Swiss friends and allies, are in a unique position to draw the world's attention to the threat faced by American democracy, and to help Americans everywhere wake up.Join us to help save democracy!
