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 our House majority.
Your support helped employ dozens of staffers nationwide to make this happen.
And your help enabled us to elect eight of our endorsed candidates, including Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock!
|
Today, we’re thrilled to announce our next round of progressive endorsements.
They represent strong voices who seek to usher in a new era of justice, fairness, and equality for all. If elected, these candidates will represent the American people in all of its richness and diversity.
March On is committed to empowering progressive candidates and championing their causes for races across the nation. From today through 2022 and beyond, we’re proud to support campaigns that will change the direction of the U.S.’s politics for good.
Below, read a bit about each of our endorsed candidates:

Born and raised in New Orleans, Karen Peterson has long understood the needs of Louisiana. Karen has always remained committed to improving the lives of her community, even in the face of obstacles. When the government refused to aid disenfranchised communities in the wake of Hurricane Katrina, Karen held state government officials accountable until they provided much-needed assistance to affected communities. Under Karen’s leadership, Louisiana will become a more equitable, healthy environment for all.
