Hey, it’s Laura Carlson, Chief Digital Officer at the DGA.

Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and his entire administration are acting like they’re above the law – and they’re targeting everything from NPR and PBS, the National Institutes of Health, and the National Parks Service to the Department of Education to Social Security and Medicaid funding!

Dem govs are already countering Trump’s attacks on our rights, but as we prepare for our most critical cycle yet – with 38 governors’ races on the ballot – we’re counting on supporters like you to inform our ongoing strategy.

But when I checked your DGA supporter record, I saw your March 18, 2025 response MISSING in our 2025-2026 Cycle Focus Group:

I’m counting on you to answer one question by midnight:

What should Democrats focus on right now?

ANSWER TODAY
Team, Democratic governors are stepping up around the country to lead the fight for progress and push back against Trump’s attacks.

In Wisconsin, Gov. Evers is working to lower prescription drug prices.
In Kansas, Gov. Kelly is working to expand Medicaid and fully fund public schools.
In New York, Gov. Hochul signed shield laws to protect abortion patients and providers, and is fighting to protect a doctor who prescribed abortion pills from prosecution in Louisiana – working to safeguard reproductive access no matter what state you live in.
In Michigan, Gov. Whitmer signed 16 bills to expand reproductive freedom and make contraception more affordable.
In Arizona, Gov. Hobbs is working to forgive billions of dollars worth of medical debt for up to a million Arizonans.
And thousands of DGA supporters have already shared what they think Democrats should be focusing on – just take a look:

What should Democrats focus on right now?
Holding the Trump administration accountable: 86.9%
Protecting voters from dangerous MAGA extremism: 83.8%
Expanding voting rights and fighting back against the Republican assault on our democracy: 82.6%
Working to lower healthcare and prescription drug costs: 74.9%
Investing in public education: 74.6%
Fending off attacks on reproductive freedom: 71.04%
But now, we need to hear from you.

Can we count on you to add your input before midnight and take a critical step towards fighting back against Trump’s extremism?
