One of the most effective safeguards against some of Donald’s worst policies is our bench of blue state governors.

Democrats like Gretchen Whitmer (MI), Andy Beshear (KY), Katie Hobbs (AZ), Josh Shapiro (PA), and Wes Moore (MD) are fighting back and giving working families hope.

But there are two incredibly important governors’ races THIS YEAR, John, in Virginia and New Jersey, and we can’t afford to lose either one.

Winning both would give Dems nationwide a huge boost, and would help other Democratic governors lead the anti-Donald movement.

Will you help me work to elect Democratic governors in New Jersey and Virginia this year to build momentum heading into 2026? If everyone reading this chipped in $25 today, we’d be well on our way to building up the resources we need to win big in 2025 AND 2026.

Whether it’s protecting abortion rights, raising the minimum wage, or ensuring we have free and fair elections, governors have a lot of power in their states.

And with the GOP in control of the House, Senate, White House, and Supreme Court, that is more important than ever.

Blue state governors are a critical check on Donald’s power, and while retaking the House and Senate next year is critical, electing Democratic governors is absolutely essential to mounting a sustainable, effective resistance.

Can you pitch in $25 to help my org Democracy Defense Fund elect more Democrats up and down the ballot? We need to win everything from state legislature races to critical gubernatorial races in Virginia and New Jersey!

Building a true resistance effort is going to take every single one of us, John, so I really appreciate your support.

Thanks,
