    Mission Statement

    The mission of the National Union Alliance is to cultivate a society grounded in thoughtful citizenship, moral courage and mutual respect. We strive to empower individuals to take responsibility for their own lives, resolve conflicts with integrity, and uphold justice rooted in character rather than division.

    Guided by the principle Look to the Good, we work to build unity in the in-between, the space where dialogue flourishes and the common good takes shape. Enough is enough. It is time to do the right thing, without presumption or prejudice.

    Shared ground

    The 86 / 15 Gap

    Americans agree our politics is broken. Few feel free to vote that way.

    1. 86%see the problem

      say Republicans and Democrats are more focused on fighting each other than on solving problems.

    2. 62%want another choice

      say a third major party is needed.

      The gap: 47 points

    3. 15%are ready to vote for one

      say they are very likely to vote for a third-party candidate.

    Sources: Pew Research Center, 2023 (86%). Gallup, September 2025 (62%, 15%). Figures come from separate national surveys.

    Why the gap? Fear.

    57%

    fear wasting their vote

    59%

    fear helping the candidate they like least

    Source: Gallup, September 2025. Share who are extremely or very concerned.

    So every election, millions of people who agree with each other vote against each other.

    How the Alliance changes the odds

    1. 01

      Make the in-between visible.

      When you can see your neighbors standing with you, you are not standing alone.

    2. 02

      Back commitments, not labels.

      Support candidates of any party, or none, who commit to the in-between.

    3. 03

      Give candidates a reason to stand there.

      Leaders move to where the votes are. Show them the in-between will turn out.

    The 86% already agree. The Alliance exists so they can find each other, and vote like it.

    Join the Movement

    It is time for a new political discourse built on unity and reason. We can focus on solutions and compromise instead of power and personal wealth. Together we can return politics to true public service, rooted in shared responsibility and shared benefit.

    The Alliance is a philosophy and a movement, not a political party. We do not run candidates, and we do not ask anyone to leave their party. Democrats, Republicans and independents can all belong. We ask only that members carry a common set of principles into their own lives, their communities and their own parties.

    Our model is the National Union Party, the name under which Abraham Lincoln ran for re-election in 1864. It joined Republicans and War Democrats to hold the country together through the Civil War and move it forward. The Alliance believes our country and our world are best served the same way: citizens of every party, united under broad principles grounded in the common interest.

    What You Can Do

    A movement grows through what its members do. Choose any of these, at whatever pace suits you.

    1. Take the pledge.

      Read the seven principles and commit to practicing them in your own life. Sign up to be counted.

    2. Hold one honest conversation.

      This month, sit down with someone who votes differently than you. Listen first, ask questions, and look for what you agree on.

    3. Start or join a circle.

      Gather four to ten neighbors, friends or coworkers of different views. Meet monthly to read, discuss and practice the principles together.

    4. Bring the principles into your own party.

      Stay a Democrat, a Republican or an independent. At meetings, caucuses and town halls, ask for solutions over slogans.

    5. Support people who keep the principles.

      Encourage and vote for candidates of any party, or none, who commit to the in-between: who listen, compromise and put the common interest first.

    6. Read and share.

      Read Jack H. Meyer's books, share this Call to Action, and follow the Alliance on Facebook, Instagram and X.

    Our Commitment

    Above all, we commit ourselves to hope: Look to the Good. See it in your neighbor. Build it in your community. Guard it in your nation.

    This is our conviction. This is our compass. Rise to the challenge of discarding the negative and embracing the good. We are the Alliance.
