John, we wanted to make sure you saw Amanda’s urgent message.

 

Here are some of the most critical things you need to know about Donald Trump’s official vice presidential pick, J.D. Vance:

  • He supports a national abortion ban.
  • He wants to end marriage equality.
  • He doesn’t believe climate change is a crisis.

These are just some of Vance’s policy stances that blatantly go against the progressive values that young Americans want for our future, making one thing abundantly clear: We need young progressives who reflect our values running for office, not J.D. Vance.

 

Please, rush $5 NOW to help Run for Something recruit and elect young progressives who will WIN their elections and combat the GOP’s wildly unpopular agenda.

 

Thank you,

 

Run for Something

Hey John,

 

When we said we wanted more young people running for office, we didn’t mean the millennial bro we all can’t stand. We meant young, diverse and in touch with what the younger generations actually want reflected in their government.

Donald Trump's VP Pick vs. The Average American

J.D. Vance supports a national abortion ban, wants to end marriage equality, and doesn’t think climate change is a crisis – aka the opposite of what we and the majority of young Americans want for our country. Polling has overwhelmingly shown that Gen-Z and young millennials hold and fight for progressive values.

So why nominate someone with such unpopular views? Because the GOP doesn’t care about what we the people want – they only care about pushing their outdated, dangerous agenda. And we’re here to stop it. 

 

These ideas don’t just pop up at the federal level. They grow from state and local offices swarming with unchecked Republican power. Every year, Run for Something endorses hundreds of young progressives who will actually reflect the will of the people and fight corrupt power grabs that Trump is oh-so fond of.

 

So please, chip in $5 or more right now to help Run for Something recruit and elect progressive candidates who will change the fate of the top of the ticket this November.

No matter what happens in the November election on the federal level, we need to invest at the state and local levels. Why wait?

 

Let’s do this,
