Who We Are

About Blue Anchor Project

We Had Enough — So We Did Something

The Blue Anchor Project isn’t some polished PAC run by consultants. We’re organizers who got tired of watching the Democratic Party ignore the very people who built it: the working class.

For too long, party leaders have been climbing ladders, cashing checks, and pretending that everyday people don’t matter. Meanwhile, Republican extremists are gearing up to take this country backward.

We’re here to get Democrats back to basics — and to rebuild a party that welcomes and represents all types of Democrats. We’re inclusive, not exclusive.

What We’re About

We don’t make excuses. We organize.

  • We hold Democrats accountable — not to tear them down, but to make them actually serve the people who elected them.

  • We bring people together through public town halls — not staged events, but real conversations where working people set the agenda.

  • We focus on the Northeast — because the Blue Wall is cracking, and too many communities have been ignored for too long.

  • We push back against both Republican extremism and Democratic complacency — because neither serves working people.

  • We fight to reconnect Democrats with the working-class voters who built this party and this country.

This isn’t a think tank. It’s not a vanity project. It’s a fight — and we’re in it to win.

The Plan

This isn’t talk — it’s action.

By the end of 2025, we will:

  • Host public town halls in all 47 congressional districts across the Northeast — no exceptions. Every community gets a voice.

  • Register new Democratic voters where the cracks are deepest and communities have been neglected the longest.

  • Build grassroots energy behind Democratic candidates who are ready to stand up for working people — not just collect votes.

  • Facilitate community conversations to bridge the growing gap between Democratic elected officials and their constituents.

  • Implement strategic communications to push back against radical political agendas and extremist misinformation.

Why Now?

Republican extremists aren’t waiting — and neither are we. We don’t want Democrats to lose, but we’re not here to sugarcoat the reality. If Democrats refuse to listen to working people and face the truth, they will lose — and with them, so will the rest of us. That’s why we are stepping up, taking action, and refusing to stop until every community, every town, and every district is heard again.

We won’t stop until the people who built this country are the ones steering it again.

Let’s Get to Work!

    Liam Kent

    Liam grew up in a rural, working-class farming town, where he saw early on how politics too often leaves working families behind. As an electrical engineer with over a decade of grassroots organizing and professional work at the intersection of politics, engineering, and advocacy, he gained firsthand insight into the systemic dysfunction holding back real progress. Liam co-founded the Blue Anchor Project to demand a serious course correction: getting Democrats back to basics by listening to voters, fighting for working families, and ending the party’s complacency with the wealthy and well-connected.

    Gerry Dubé

    Gerry grew up in a working-class mill town in the Northeast, where he learned early how politics often fails the very people it claims to represent. Coming from a family that valued hard work and community, he saw firsthand how working-class voices were too often ignored by those in power. After more than 30 years working inside the Texas State Legislature, Gerry has seen that dysfunction play out not only in Texas but across the country. A trained political scientist and a relentless advocate for the little guy, he co-founded the Blue Anchor Project to hold power to account. His mission is to bring working people, the people who keep this country running, back into the political conversation.
