Age isn’t enough. We need leaders with a vision, guts, and values.
John,
Let’s be clear: we’re not here to elect people just because they’re young.
There are plenty of young candidates who still want to criminalize abortion, protect billionaires, and side with corporations over communities.
That’s not progress. It’s just repackaging the same broken politics in a younger body.
At Leaders We Deserve, we’re throwing our weight behind bold progressives – young leaders who understand what it’s like to grow up in a time of climate disaster, crushing debt, and mass shootings.
Leaders who know that change doesn’t come from playing it safe, it comes from taking risks, building power, and fighting like hell for what’s right.
The kind of leaders we support are:
- Bold enough to challenge the status quo
- Smart enough to build winning coalitions
- Grounded enough to listen, organize, and deliver
We just announced a $20 million investment to support these candidates – including in Democratic primaries against entrenched incumbents in safe blue districts.
We don’t just want younger leaders. We want and need better ones.
If you’re with us, John, help us power this work. Pitch in $5 to help support the next generation of progressive leaders.

Thanks for believing in what we’re building.
