John,

Today, we’re thrilled to release our 2024 Impact Report!

While the presidential outcome was not what any of us had hoped for, our wins in the states underscore the power of grassroots organizing and the enduring impact of our efforts. In 2016, Democrats held majorities in just 29 state legislative chambers. Now, they control nearly 40. 

Because of this grassroots community, we were able to endorse more candidates last year than ever before. Together, we won 31 races — an impressive feat in today’s polarized landscape, breaking the GOP supermajorities in the NC House and WI Senate. We also maintained control of the PA House and MN Senate. 

You can read the full report here, John. Here are a few of our favorite highlights from last year: 

• Endorsed 53 candidates in nine states and partnered with eight State Bridges Partners
  
  
• Supported a diversity of candidates, 83% of whom were women or nonbinary, 43% were people of color, and 28% were first-time candidates for state legislative office
  
  
• Made 62% of calls and raised 13% of total contributions for our top-targeted candidates
  
  
• Invested $2M+ to elect state lawmakers and boost our local organizing partners
  
  
• Volunteers across the country organized 930+ virtual and in-person events for candidates
  
  
• Conducted extensive research and deployed our data-backed messages to voters via digital and mail to combat downballot roll-off

We could not be more proud of what we achieved together, John. 

Your dedication and partnership have laid the foundation for the critical work ahead. 

Now, with a Republican trifecta in the White House and both chambers of Congress — and an incoming Trump administration pledging to transfer greater power to the states — our mission is more urgent than ever. Because of your support, Sister District is ready to fight back and continue building lasting Democratic state power. 

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your passion, resilience, and your belief in this movement.
