Dear Friend,
The 2024 election is over, and I have important updates about Protect Our Kids PAC and our endorsed candidates. In short, we won big.
But first, let’s zoom out. Since Protect Our Kids launched in 2022, we have held true to a single mission: supporting strong candidates for public office who will fight against lax drug laws that hurt our kids. Our hypothesis was that by focusing our energy on close Congressional races, we could maximize our impact and help secure victories for anti-drug advocates.
The first major test of our theory, the 2024 primary elections, was a successful proof of concept. Across the country from Maryland to California, candidates whom we supported on both sides of the aisle won hotly-contested primary elections.
The real test, though, was Election Day in November. And we have good news: Protect Our Kids-endorsed candidates won crucial races nationwide.
Please consider donating to Protect Our Kids PAC so that we can continue to support anti-drug candidates fighting for the next generation!
In Maryland, Democratic Senator-Elect Angela Alsobrooks beat Larry Hogan, a former Governor who allowed Maryland to legalize marijuana without a fight. Early on, the race looked neck and neck. But we knew that Angela would come out with a big win. And she did, beating Hogan by nine points!
