While Hillary has (understandably) been taking it easy since last November, she's officially back in politics.
On Monday, Clinton announced in an email to supporters that she will be launching Onward Together, a political group that will be aimed at encouraging people to, "get involved, organize, and even run for office."According to the New York Times the group will also try to harness opposition to the Trump administration's policies. (Because, let's be honest, there's kind of a lot of it.)

Money raised by Onward Together will support groups such as Color of Change, an organization that promotes racial justice, and Emerge America, which works to help Democratic women run for office. Clinton also added in a series of tweets that Vermont governor and Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean would work closely with the new organization.
Clinton ended her big announcement, saying, "This year hasn't been what I envisioned, but I know what I'm still fighting for: a kinder, big-hearted, inclusive America. Onward!"
