John,
This Special Election is right around the corner. [ [link removed] ]Please read why we
need support below, then donate right away to help us win.
Born and raised in New Orleans, Karen Carter Peterson has always
championed progressive values— even in one of the reddest states.
When leaders of her party were joining anti-choice Republicans to strip a
women’s right to reproductive health, Karen fought to protect a woman’s
right to choose because she understands that reproductive justice is an
issue you do not compromise on.
And when former Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal refused to expand health
care, Karen fought to expand Medicaid as a member of the Obama White House
Health Care Taskforce. Now today, an additional half a million Louisianans
have health insurance, access to primary care, and pay lower out-of-pocket
health care costs.
Ever since Karen Carter Peterson ran for the Louisiana State House at the
age of 29, she has dedicated her life to public service. Another reason
why it's no surprise Stacey Abrams recently endorsed Karen.
Karen will fight for a living wage, Medicare for all, and criminal justice
reform in the halls of Congress but with a March 20th primary election
date, we need all hands on deck to win this election.
Rush a split contribution to Karen and DFA today. Let’s send this
progressive champion to Congress and get to work fighting for the change
we need:

In 2012 Karen beat an incumbent to become the first woman to be the
chairperson of the Louisiana Democratic Party and then in 2017, Karen was
elected vice-chair of civic engagement and voter protection at the
Democratic National Committee.
Now, in 2021 Karen would not only be the first Black woman to represent
her district, but she’d also be the first Black woman to EVER represent
Louisiana in Congress.
Karen understands the progressive change we need and has the experience to
get it done.
If we’re going to make real change in this country, we have to run and win
everywhere, and that starts with electing real progressives like Karen in
states like Louisiana.
With only a little over a month until the special election, this is going
to be an uphill fight. Karen’s opponents have the backing of the corporate
establishment. That means Karen is going to need overwhelming grassroots
support to win this primary.
We can't win this election without your help. Will you rush a contribution
today to Karen Carter Peterson and DFA to help elect this bold progressive
to Congress? Anything you can pitch in right now will make a difference:
