Forward together: Yang announces new third party

Andrew Yang‘s Forward Party is merging with two groups, making it the largest third party in the United States by resources, the former presidential candidate announced on Wednesday.

The Forward Party, founded in October of last year, will now simply be named Forward, and it is bulking up with the intent of presenting a viable alternative to a two-party system that increasingly fails to represent the majority of the public, Yang and his gang of allies said in a joint op-ed.
