WASHINGTON, D.C. — Former America First Policy Institute spokesperson Jenn Pellegrino today announced the launch of Defend Forgotten America Action (DFAA)—dedicated to empowering state and local conservative leaders and advancing policies in Washington that reflect the realities of the American heartland.
Born out of the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement, DFAA will work in tandem to strengthen the voice of “forgotten Americans” who have long been overlooked by Washington elites and entrenched bureaucrats.
Defend Forgotten America Action (DFAA) will focus on economic empowerment and conservative governance rooted in the Constitution, supporting the voices of leaders who are creating jobs, cutting taxes, and restoring opportunity in forgotten communities.
“For too long, Washington elites have made decisions about communities they’ve never set foot in,” said Jenn Pellegrino, founder of Defend Forgotten America Action. “President Trump gave forgotten Americans a voice—and these organizations exist to make sure that voice is never silenced again. We will fight to make sure that the conservative leaders who know their communities best are heard in Washington.”
