John, the candidates we’re supporting — from Nate Douglas in Orlando, Florida to Anna Thomas in Pennsylvania — are the answer to hopelessness.
Our candidates aren’t afraid to stand up and fight for our values on the issues that matter most to young people, like reducing gun violence, addressing the climate crisis with meaningful solutions, and defending the right to an abortion.
And they are doing more than just keeping the GOP at bay. They are charting a path of progress in our state legislatures and building a bench of young leaders who will undoubtedly make a mark on the national stage in the future. Think about this: One of our candidates could very well be running for President one day!
We are giving voters a reason to believe that participating in our elections is worth it when they see candidates who look and think like they do running for office, candidates who share their unique lived experiences and forward-thinking vision.
And we’re electing the next generation of leaders everywhere, all across the country, because we know that no single person is coming to save us.
Our representatives in the State House are just as important as who is in the White House. We have to elect like-minded leaders at every level who will work with us to ensure a better future. And that’s why we’re so committed to this work.
I understand the concern for our democracy, but I am convinced that supporting progressive candidates from the younger generation is one of our best weapons in the fight to save it. We can only defeat hopelessness with a reason for hope.
Donate $25 or whatever amount feels right, split between Leaders We Deserve and The Majority Rules I know we can hit this $12,000 fundraising goal by midnight with the support of this awesome team.
