The Fighting Oligarchy Tour, sometimes subtitled Where We Go from Here,[1] is a series of American political rallies led by Independent U.S. senator Bernie Sanders and Democratic U.S. representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. It began on February 21, 2025, in Omaha, Nebraska, with the stated goal of opposing oligarchy and the influence of billionaires and corporations in U.S. politics.[2] A section covering the western U.S. began on March 20 in Las Vegas, Nevada.[3] 34,000 people attended a rally on March 21 in Denver, Colorado, bigger than any event held by the Democratic Party at the time, and with a bigger audience than any during Sanders's two presidential campaigns. This was followed by a crowd of 36,000 in Los Angeles, California on April 12. The tour has featured speeches, musical performances, and efforts to promote policies such as universal healthcare and wealth taxation.
