John,
We know this election didn’t turn out the way we had hoped for.
But from Congress to state legislatures across the country, our candidates won important races and seats to make good on the issues that matter most to their constituents — from tackling the climate crisis to working toward a future free of gun violence.
This didn’t come out of nowhere. For over a year now, Leaders We Deserve has been at the forefront of investing in young leaders — to cultivate a bench of young progressives who will fight for their communities and help to defeat the far-right’s agenda.
We don’t plan on slowing down either. As we prepare for Donald Trump’s return to office, it’s clear that young progressives will be the antidote we need to counter the MAGA GOP.
With that in mind — have you ever thought about running for office, John? Yes you! As we look to the future, you or someone you know could play an important role in shaping this future by running for office. If you’ve got a moment, share your thoughts by filling out our quick candidate recruitment survey now!

By electing more young trailblazers to office, we’re breaking down the barriers that have long kept young people away from the table.
We not only identify candidates who will have the biggest impact on their communities — we go even further by providing day-to-day support by building campaigns from the ground up and work with candidates directly on their messaging, fundraising, coalition building and much more!
Our movement is shaking up the status quo and equipping the next generation of leadership with the tools and resources they need to not only run but to win their races.
And it all begins with folks like you, John! So if you've ever considered running for office or if you know a young person in your community who should be on our radar, can you take a moment to fill out our candidate recruitment survey?
