John,
The Presidential and Congressional races earn a lot of headlines - but there's another set of races that need our attention. These city council, school board, mayoral races and other key local races have a lot of impact. These are going to be the people who balance your town's budget and make key funding decisions for schools. They're going to choose if books are banned or preserved. They decide when your trash gets picked up on time - nothing more impactful than that!
Right now, we're working to elect LGBTQ+ candidates at every level of local government - and build a lasting bench of LGBTQ+ political power. Will you donate $20.24 in honor of one of these candidates today? [[link removed]]
Click a candidate’s name and help Victory Fund give LGBTQ+ candidates a leg-up!
