[ [link removed] ]New York Times Headline: Candidates and political parties are
struggling to plan for a fall campaign without some of the most basic
building blocks of politics.

[ [link removed] ]Help progressive candidates pay technology licenses to support
volunteers who can't go door-to-door because of the coronavirus. Donate
here.

A Democratic strategist tells the New York Times this week: "Campaigns
don’t need a new 'Plan B' for field. They need a new 'Plan A' because
door-to-door canvassing is not going to happen at scale in the 2020
election."

[ [link removed] ]Can you chip in $3 to progressive candidates for technology licenses
they need to support volunteers who can't go door-to-door, and our work to
support them?

These are some of the progressives who need your help:

Kara Eastman (NE-2) is running to take on Republican incumbent, Don Bacon,
who votes in line with Donald Trump 94% of the time and is one of the most
vulnerable Republicans in the country. Kara is a bold progressive hero who
decided to run for Congress on a platform of Medicare for All when her mom
had to pay $2,500 per pill for cancer medication. Kara attended our
national training and, after PCCC members donated nearly $300,000 to her
campaign in 2018, she came 1 point away from defeating Bacon, despite not
receiving any real help from the DCCC. Kara's proving you can run ANYWHERE
on a bold progressive message and win. The Nebraska primary is this coming
Tuesday, May 12. [ [link removed] ]Donate to Kara here. And [ [link removed] ]help Kara Get Out The Vote
this weekend by calling voters from home. Click here!

Mondaire Jones (NY-17) is running in a crowded primary for an open blue
seat. (The previous Democrat decided to retire.) Mondaire was born in his
district that is one of the hardest hit by the coronavirus, and was raised
in Section 8 housing by a single mom who worked multiple jobs. He earned a
Stanford BA, worked at the Department of Justice, graduated from Harvard
Law School, founded a nonprofit, and then returned home to work as an
attorney. He’s running on a platform that includes Medicare for All,
universal child care, student debt forgiveness, and the Green New Deal.
He’s endorsed by Democracy for America, Collective PAC, the Victory Fund
-- and Elizabeth Warren! The NY primary has been moved to June 23.

Arati Kreibich (NJ-5) is challenging corporate conservative Dem Josh
Gottheimer in the delayed NJ primary on July 7. Gottheimer organized other
conservative Democrats to kill attempts to end child cages at the border
-- an absurd position for someone representing a suburb of New York. He is
funded by Wall Street and votes their way. Arati won election as a
progressive City Councilwoman, attended our candidate training, and is
fighting for Medicare For All, Green New Deal and challenging big-money
special interests. [ [link removed] ]Donate to Arati here.

Candace Valenzuela (TX-24) is running to replace retiring Republican Rep.
Kenny Marchant in TX-24, one of the most flippable races in the country in
2020. Candace grew up in a military family that struggled financially and
was homeless for a time. She went on to become an educator, and then was
the first Latina and African-American woman elected to her local school
board. She is also one of our training alums, and is endorsed by Elizabeth
Warren! After coming in the top two in the Texas primary, Candace advanced
to the party's runoff, which has now been pushed back to July 14.

licenses they need to support volunteers who can't go door-to-door, and
our work to support them?

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
