Its mission is to build the movement to improve the lives of working families in Maryland through outreach, public education, lobbying, direct political action, research, and helping elect progressive candidates to office.

Founded in 2000, it is one of Maryland's largest grassroots advocacy organizations, with more than 20,000 individual members and supporters and 30 affiliated religious, community, and labor organizations.[2]
