John, Democratic women can do the impossible.

Since I became a part of Emerge in 2006, I’ve seen women step up to run for office and succeed when polls and pundits said they didn’t have what it takes. From building new Democratic trifectas to achieving the FIRST majority-women legislature in the nation (in my home state of Nevada), Emerge women are making history and reshaping politics as we know it. And we’re just getting started.

Right now, it’s no exaggeration to say the strength of our democracy is fading. But Emerge continues to rise to the occasion by recruiting, training, and empowering Democratic women to run, win, and fight for our essential rights and our communities. And with a stellar 71 percent win rate in 2022 alone, alums of our political training programs are making an impact at every level of office in 45 states and U.S. territories. That’s not a fluke, John – it’s a movement.

That’s why I’m so hopeful about what we can accomplish in 2024 and beyond. Because every year (for the past 20 years), Emerge is building a bench of bold Democratic women with the skills and support they need to win up and down the ballot, push back against the broken GOP’s agenda, and achieve a democracy that works for all our communities.

With over 1,200 Emerge women in office right now and over 175 more on the November ballot, our ranks of trailblazers, fierce fighters, and committed community advocates are growing state by state. But our movement needs you, John. Your support is what powers our work to transform politics and ensures that Emerge can be there for every woman daring to speak out and claim a seat at the table.

So if you’re ready to see more bold Democratic women in office and achieve a truly inclusive democracy for the FIRST time, please show your support with a donation to Emerge today. Every contribution helps expand our programs to help women run for office, win critical races, and deliver for all our communities.

Thank you for being a part of our women-led movement,

A’shanti Gholar
President, Emerge
