Our House '26
A National Campaign to Elect Independent Leaders to the U.S. House of Representatives
This Is Our House. Let’s Take It Back.
In 2026, we’re electing a historic bloc of independent leaders to Congress—accountable to the people, not political parties.
What Is Our House ‘26?
Our House ‘26 is a two-year national campaign to break the two-party stranglehold on the U.S. House of Representatives by electing a new bloc of independent citizen leaders in 2026.
Launched by United Independents, and supported by our affiliated think tank (Better Governance Institute), our SuperPAC partner (United Independents Campaign Fund), the new PAC (Our House '26) created to facilitate this campaign, as well as a wide range of other partners, this campaign is building the infrastructure, coalitions, and momentum necessary to fundamentally shift power away from party elites and back to the American people.
This isn’t just about political activism. It’s about governance. It’s about who controls the House—and how we ensure that the People do.
Why It Matters
We’re facing a broken Congress.
Entrenched incumbents. Corporate donors. Party-line dysfunction. The House is not functioning as a representative body of the people—it’s a partisan battlefield where they don’t talk about the corruption endemic to both sides.
Our House will change that.
We’re recruiting, supporting, and electing a bloc of Independents who:
• Answer to their constituents and conscience, not a party whip
• Refuse corporate PAC money
• Fight for transparency, accountability, and systemic reform
• Can hold the balance of power and disrupt partisan control
How We Win
A Campaign Like No Other
This isn’t just about finding a few good candidates. It’s a coordinated national strategy to flip the script in 2026.
Here’s how we’re doing it:
District Targeting
We’ve identified dozens of districts winnable by Independent candidates based on data—not guesswork.
Candidate Development
We train and support mission-aligned independent leaders who can win.
Movement Infrastructure
We’re building coalitions, media partnerships, and digital tools to scale.
A Fulcrum Caucus
We only need five to fifteen independents in the House to end two-party dominance and become the deciding vote between Democrats and Republicans on all legislation.
“We don’t need 218 seats to transform Congress. We just need a beachhead of independents who prevent either party from having a majority and can’t be ignored.”— Christopher Life
Piloting the Future of Corruption-Free Governance
The Our House ’26 campaign isn’t just about ending two-party control—it’s about proving that a new standard of governance is possible. We are showcasing what it looks like when citizen legislators are truly accountable to their communities, not corporate donors or party elites.
This new standard will include:
1. Candidate Integrity Contracts:
Public, signed commitments to corruption-free leadership.
2. Best Practices in Ethical Governance:
Clear principles for transparency, accountability, and constituent-first service.
3. Built-In Technology & Oversight:
Systems that enable voters to track alignment, hold leaders accountable, and build lasting trust.
Building Voter Demand for Integrity
Our House will be the national proving ground for this model. As we support candidates who uphold these standards, we’ll also help ignite a cultural shift—where voters expect and demand independent, corruption-free leadership in every race across the country.
This is how we rebuild trust in government.
This is how we turn The House into Our House.
Who’s Behind It
A Program of United Independents
United Independents is the organization behind the Independent National Convention (INC). After bringing together hundreds of leaders from across the independent political movement through the last three national INC gatherings, we’re shifting from convening and vision-building to full-scale electoral action.
Our House ’26 is the flagship national campaign of the United Independent Movement.
This initiative is powered by a growing coalition of organizations, advisors, and stakeholders—working in concert to accomplish what none of us could do alone: elect a bloc of independent leaders to Congress and usher in a new era of representative, corruption-free governance.
