James, Kamala Harris’ selection of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her VP is great news for progressives! As Bernie said, "he will deliver for the working families of the US."
Walz is a proven progressive who has successfully delivered on reproductive rights, clean energy, stronger labor protections, paid leave, free school meals, cannabis legalization, affordable housing, and gun safety — and just as important: he knows how to beat Republicans.
Polls show Harris and Trump are TIED, but adding Walz to the ticket gives us a fighting chance. This is amazing news that has progressives fired up, but this is still a razor tight race and we have work to do!
Choosing a Midwesterner committed to a working class agenda will make the ticket more competitive in key battleground states — but now we need to get to work! Donate to our Swing State Fund TODAY.

"The selection of Tim Walz as the vice-presidential nominee shows the Harris campaign is listening to the voices of progressives," Joseph Geevarghese, Our Revolution Executive Director, told The New York Times this morning.
Tim Walz — a former high school teacher, football coach, and military veteran — defeated a six-term Republican incumbent to represent a red district in Congress before becoming a popular two-term governor.
He knows how to beat Republicans and that’s critical right now, because the polls show the presidential race is neck and neck, especially in the midwest.
Our goal is to raise $1.2 MILLION to deploy our voter turnout machine in all the swing states. For every $1 donated, we can make 5 voter contacts in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and North Carolina.
With less than 100 days to go before Election Day, we need to maximize our voter outreach, break the tie in the polls, and make sure we win the electoral college to stop Trump’s return to the White House.
When we organize, we win.
