John, we need Democrats to win in 2026. 

We can’t afford another two years of an unchecked and unbound Trump Administration. 

Families literally cannot afford any more inaction on the affordability crisis. 

But we can’t just talk the talk about this being the most important election of our lifetimes, we have to put our money where our mouth is. 

So today I’m donating over $400,000 from my campaign account to 23 state parties — including the Minnesota DFL party — to help Democrats win up and down the ballot in November. There’s more on my decision below — and if you’re in the place to join me in making sure Democrats win big in 2026, please split a donation between the Minnesota DFL party and our campaign now.

I took a hard look at the election map for 2026. I did the math and identified 23 really good pickup opportunities for Democrats. 

Alaska. Arizona. California. Colorado. Florida. Georgia. Iowa. Kentucky. Maine. Michigan. Minnesota. Mississippi. Nebraska. New Hampshire. New York. New Jersey. Nevada. North Carolina. Ohio. Pennsylvania. Texas. Virginia. Wisconsin. 

These states are home to some of the most competitive races of the cycle — and where this money can make a real difference for a majority in Congress and taking back power in state legislatures and Governor offices. These are elections that we can win if we invest in state infrastructure early and we can take on the billionaires and big corporations throwing money into these races.

This is one of the best ways to guarantee Democrats can actually make our plans a reality. Because we can only make change if we have the majorities to fight for it. 

You make this work possible, and there’s a lot more we have to do as a team in order to fight hard and win big in 2026. So, if you’re able, split a donation of $10, $25, $50, or anything you can to our campaign and the Minnesota DFL party so we can take back power in 2026, stop Trump’s unchecked corruption, and pass our plans to make our government work for working people.

Thanks for being a part of this, 

Elizabeth
