Andrew Yang is one of the most prominent and energetic champions for independent voters and political reform in America today. He has consistently argued that the two-party system is broken and that independents are the key to fixing it. As he often says:
"The two-party system is failing the American people. It's time to build something better."
Yang is the founder of the Forward Party, a national movement working to end partisan gridlock through ranked-choice voting, open primaries, and greater ballot access for independent and third-party candidates. After running for President as a Democrat in 2020, he left the party and has since become a leading voice for Americans who feel politically homeless.
A former entrepreneur and best-selling author, Yang continues to push for solutions that put people over parties. He frequently speaks about the growing power of independent voters and the need for structural reform.
"Time only flows in one direction, and progress is a good thing as long as its benefits are shared."
