Let me tell you what I think, John.

Young people are smart. We pay attention to the issues. We’re showing up to vote.

But to me, this is only the first step for our generation. The second step? Running. 

We need young people on the ballot. We need young people in elected office.

That’s why I teamed up with Kevin Lata, the campaign manager who helped elect the first ever Gen-Z member of Congress last year, to launch Leaders We Deserve.

John, if you agree that we need more young, courageous leaders running for office, will you pitch in $25 to help Leaders We Deserve make it happen?

About BlueAmp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world. 

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits. 

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do! Please follow Cliff Schecter on Twitter @cliffschecter, or subscribe to The Takedown with Cliff Schecter on YouTube, to keep up to date with this battle for the heart and soul of our country.
