Friend --

We have an incredible opportunity to elect another Rashida endorsed socialist to the MI State Legislature, but we need you to help make that happen! Layla Taha is running in the upcoming special election for House District 25, and is a committed DSA member, Rashida staff member, and public health advocate. A seasoned organizer and advocate deeply rooted in her community, Layla is committed to fighting for universal healthcare, environmental justice, and a union-powered economy. 

Absentee ballots go out in just two weeks and every dollar makes a difference. Will you make a donation today to help Layla Taha champion these transformative policies in Lansing?

The slim majority we would secure in the State Legislature means that this seat holds enormous leverage to enact policies that will truly transform our communities and prioritize the well-being of the working class over corporate interests - that also means the establishment is fighting tooth and nail to hold onto this seat. Layla’s campaign is facing 5 well funded challengers. We can build the ground game to win, but we also need to reach our fundraising goals to have the tools to reach voters.

Layla is the only candidate pledging not to take a dime of corporate money. Will you make a donation today to help put another socialist in office? Every donation means more conversations on the doors, more texts and calls to voters, and the ability to send more mailers to residents. 

With Layla's campaign, we envision a Michigan where every working family can care for their loved ones without sacrificing their livelihoods, where big polluters and corporations like DTE are held accountable, protecting our air and water, and putting an end to the devastation of our communities.

If you are unable to give monetarily, sign up for ways to volunteer here. 

By supporting Layla, you are investing in a movement for socialism in metro Detroit and beyond.

Together we can build a Michigan that works for all us, not just the wealthy few.

In solidarity,

Chris G.
