DNC and ASDC Announces “Organize Everywhere, Win Anywhere” Strategy – Largest-Ever Monthly DNC Investment into Democratic State and Territory Parties

The DNC will transfer over $1 million a month into Democratic state parties – a historic increase in monthly funding – to deliver on Chair Martin’s commitment to organizing and winning everywhere

Today, DNC Chair Ken Martin and ASDC President Jane Kleeb announced a historic “organize everywhere, win anywhere” strategy – a new four-year agreement to deliver more resources into Democratic state and territory parties than ever before – delivering on Chair Martin’s commitment to turbocharging investments in on-the-ground organizing and party building. Under the new State Partnership Program (SPP) agreement, each state party will receive a baseline of $17,500 a month, a $5,000 per month increase over the last agreement, and Republican-controlled states will receive an additional investment of $5,000 a month through the DNC’s Red State Fund, putting their total at $22,500 every month. The combined investments total a monthly transfer of more than $1 million from the DNC to state parties – the committee’s largest investment into Democratic state parties in history. Additionally, the DNC makes significant investments into the technology that powers the Democratic Party, including
maintaining the national voter file with robust augmentations and giving state parties best-in-class tools for accessing and leveraging that data. Each state party receives six-figures worth of data and tooling annually.


These resources will allow Democratic state parties to invest in critical infrastructure and staffing, strengthen their data and tech operations, build on-the-ground organizing programs, and better prepare for upcoming election cycles – not just in the months ahead, but in the years to come. Additionally, the new agreement includes the DNC’s commitment to hosting six regional training “bootcamps” for state parties per two-year cycle and the hiring of new ASDC staff, including five regional directors.

“With this announcement, we are breaking ground on a historic political investment unlike anything Democrats have done in modern times,”
said DNC Chair Ken Martin. “Elections are won in states – and that's exactly where we will be investing our resources. When I ran for DNC Chair, I said two things over and over. First, we have to get the DNC out of DC and into the states. Second, we have to organize everywhere and compete everywhere if we’re going to win everywhere. This agreement is how we start turning those beliefs into reality. We’re putting our money where our mouth is to equip state parties with what they need to reach working families who deserve better, build long-term success all across the ballot, and gain electoral ground for years to come.”

“When I ran to be the President of the ASDC, I knew the mission was clear: Democrats needed to rebuild infrastructure in the states and provide our state parties with the resources necessary to win. This historic agreement allows us to do just that: building infrastructure to expand Democratic power across our states and territories, be it in red, blue, or purple America,”
said ASDC President Jane Kleeb. “State parties are the backbone of the Democratic Party, and through this investment, our state parties will receive the support they need to show voters that, no matter where they live, there is a strong Democratic Party in their corner, protecting their rights and economic opportunity against Republican attacks. I couldn’t be more thrilled with this investment and know our state parties across the country are ready to do the work to win elections everywhere.”

The SPP funding comes on the heels of Chair Martin’s
