MARCH ON is dedicated to increasing voter turnout and driving Democrats to the polls. Our data-driven solutions helped defeat Donald Trump in in 2020. Now, we're gearing up to hold the House and Senate in 2022 to advance our progressive agenda.
|
After marching countless miles, spending hours on phone and text banks, and getting our friends, family (and ourselves) to the polls, we swept the field and took back the Senate and White House while also holding the House.
They said it would be impossible, but we did it anyway.
Your support helped employ dozens of staffers nationwide to make this happen.
And it helped us elect eight amazing progressives across the country.
Below, read a bit about each of our endorsed candidates:
|
Katie Porter -
California 45th District
|
Katie’s unwavering support of legislation to reduce the influence of dark money in politics and restore ethics in Washington are just a few reasons we are proud to have endorsed Katie Porter for the 2020 Democratic candidate in California’s 45th Congressional District election for the U.S. House of Representatives.

Jahana Hayes -
Connecticut 5th District
|
Jahana Hayes has fought for equitable access to quality education and for protection of the environment, making her re-election to Congress for Connecticut’s 5th Congressional District key to the success of the Democrats in Congress.

Kim Schrier -
Washington 8th District
|
Prior to her election to Congress in November 2018, Kim spent her career as a pediatrician, working with children across the Puget Sound region and helping families navigate the healthcare system. Because Kim uses this expertise to inform her work on issues that improve the lives, health and wellbeing of children, we are proud to have endorsed Kim Schrier for her re-election campaign as Washington’s 8th Congressional District representative.

Lucy McBath -
Georgia 6th District

Congresswoman Lucy McBath has channeled her pain into fighting for Americans so they don’t have to experience the loss she has experienced. Lucy’s son, Jordan Davis, was shot and killed in an argument over loud music at a gas station in Jacksonville, Florida, on November 23, 2012, at the young age of 17. It is because of her experiences, such as the death of her son and two successful battles against breast cancer, that she has dedicated her life to helping create a safer country for all. We proudly support Lucy as Georgia’s 6th Congressional District representative.
