“This year hasn’t been what I envisioned, but I know what I’m still fighting for: a kinder, big-hearted, inclusive America. Onward!”

Former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has launched a new political action organisation to fight against US President Donald Trump’s agenda and raise funds for five prominent progressive groups.

“I believe more fiercely than ever that citizen engagement at every level is central to a strong and vibrant democracy,” Ms Clinton said announcing the launch of her group ‘Onward Together’.

“I’m so inspired by everyone stepping up to organise and lead,” the former secretary of state, said to her supporters as she urged them to contribute to the “remarkable” spirit of political activism.

The announcement comes as Ms Clinton, 69, works to find a new role in an evolving political landscape.

The new group’s website said it aimed to advance progressive values and reminded visitors that Ms Clinton had won nearly 66 million votes in November’s showdown with Mr Trump.

“Onward Together will work to build a brighter future for generations to come by supporting groups that encourage people to organise and run for office,” she wrote.

“This year hasn’t been what I envisioned, but I know what I’m still fighting for: a kinder, big-hearted, inclusive America. Onward!”
