John, elections don’t stop in a time of crisis.
Yes, some primaries have been postponed, but every state will still vote one way or another. That’s why, even in this time of crisis, I have to ask for resources for our campaigns to win.
Here’s exactly where your $5 goes. Every contribution you make allows us to support incredible progressive candidates and has a tangible impact on the outcome of their elections. Just ask DFA-endorsed winner Marie Newman, who defeated bad Democrat Dan Lipinski earlier this month despite having to campaign just as the pandemic hit Illinois.
Check out our shortlist of critical races for 2020:
So far we’ve endorsed SIX candidates running for Senate in Red to Blue states:
- Cal Cunningham in North Carolina
- Theresa Greenfield in Iowa
- Raphael Warnock in Georgia
- Teresa Tomlinson in Georgia
- Betsy Sweet in Maine
- Jaime Harrison in South Carolina
We’ve also endorsed SEVEN candidates running to flip critical House districts:
- Ammar Campa-Najjar for CA-50
- J.D. Scholten for IA-04
- Dana Balter for NY-24
- Gina Ortiz Jones for TX-23
- Adrienne Bell for TX-14
- Kara Eastman for NE-02
- Mondaire Jones for NY-17
Not only that, but we’re protecting EIGHT new progressive leaders as they fight to keep their seats in the House:
- Katie Porter for CA-45
- Lauren Underwood for IL-14
- Ilhan Omar for MN-05
- Rashida Tlaib for MI-13
- Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for NY-14
- Ayanna Pressley for MA-07
- Joe Neguse for CO-02
- Mike Levin for CA-49
2020 is going to be a historic election, John, no doubt about that. We will defeat Trump, but our progressive agenda won’t go anywhere unless we also flip the Senate and protect and expand our majority in the House. Winning these battleground seats will take a significant amount of resources, which is why we’re asking:
