I’m about to ask you for $15 to help BAWN, Leaders We Deserve, and I elect young gun safety leaders from coast to coast at every level of government. But first, please let me explain why Leaders We Deserve’s work is important, share our recent wins in Georgia and Ohio with you, and tell you why your contribution means so much to me. >>
When I was just 17, I survived one of the deadliest school shootings in our country.
After the Parkland Shooting, I was determined to do something about this injustice along with countless other young people.
Since then, we’ve witnessed firsthand how the cowardly GOP has let us down over and over again – only offering “thoughts and prayers” and blocking critical gun safety legislation.
That’s why I started Leaders We Deserve to elect young leaders to office who are ready to make real change in Congress and State Legislatures across the country.
I KNOW we can elect a HISTORIC wave of young gun safety leaders to office.
In just our first few months we’ve already accomplished so much.
We elected Nadarius Clark to the Virginia Assembly and helped take back the Virginia legislature for Democrats.
And just helped elect Christine Cockley to become the youngest state legislator in Ohio and the second Jewish woman to serve in the legislature as she won her primary and still has a general but it’s a very blue seat. She is almost certainly going to win in November.
Our candidate Ashwin Ramaswami in Georgia is leading the pack in his race, too.

But our work is far from over.
I’m reaching out today because I need your help to keep our momentum going and ensure we have the resources to help our candidates compete with the gun lobby’s MILLIONS. BAWN and I set an ambitious goal to raise $8,000 before our FIRST End of Quarter Deadline of this pivotal election year so we can rush resources to Ashwin, Christine, and more young gun safety leaders running in tight races. We have an UNPRECEDENTED opportunity to show the gun lobby and their hand-picked candidates exactly what we’re made of – so we can’t afford to fall short now. Please, can you rush $15 in the next 24 hours? All contributions go to the work my organization is doing to elect young leaders at every level of government. >>
Your support has meant the world to us.
You helped us fund my journey across Virginia to turn out young voters and rally volunteers in competitive races.
You helped elect the youngest member of Virginia’s legislature (and our very first endorsed candidate!), Nadarius Clark. And the soon to be youngest in Ohio- Christine Cockley.
You helped us rush critical resources to young candidates running in contentious primaries and some of the most competitive races in the country.
You even helped us secure a primary win for Christine Cockley in Ohio – by thirteen points!
Truly, there’s nothing you can’t do.
But now I need your help to get our candidates (like Christine and Ashwin!) to the finish line, replenish our bank accounts, and elect even more young leaders to Congress and State Legislatures who will fight to end mass shootings.
So I’m humbly asking one last time: Every dollar you donate will go directly towards Leader We Deserve’s work in electing young candidates like Christine, Ashwin, and Nadarius who have the guts to take a stand against the gun lobby, support an assault weapons ban, and put a stop to the endless mass shootings our country is facing. Will you chip in $15 in the next 24 hours to help us clinch our End of Quarter goal? It would mean so much to me to have your support. >>
Thanks for all that you do,
David Hogg
Co-founder, Leaders We Deserve
Board Member, Ban Assault Weapons NOW!
P.S. Check out the slate of Leaders We Deserve’s endorsed candidates for 2024. We’re counting on your grassroots support to help them win. Will you pitch in $15? >>

BAWN is committed to replacing every cowardly and complacent lawmaker, regardless of party, that denies your right to live without fear of being shot. Legislators that support the deadly proliferation of guns, instead of common sense gun safety measures, are responsible for the carnage of gun violence -- and must be voted out.
BAWN also lobbies legislators to support the assault weapon and large capacity magazine ban bills that will help put an end to the slaughter of innocent Americans.
But they can’t do this alone. BAWN is relying on your support to kick every coward who refuses to protect our children and families OUT of office. Will you chip in right away?
