John,
Right now in Louisiana, Karen Carter Peterson is in a closely contested race with the establishment-backed candidate, Troy Carter.
While Karen Carter Peterson will fight to pass a Green New Deal, her opponent Troy Carter has been taking contributions from executives that have offshore drilling operations with partners including ExxonMobil, Shell, BP, and Chevron.
It’s no wonder Troy Carter wants Biden to reconsider his temporary moratorium on new oil and gas leases in the Gulf of Mexico.
With oil and gas executives rallying behind Troy Carter in the final week of this primary, Karen Carter Peterson is counting on one last big surge of grassroots support to fuel GOTV calls, digital organizing, and in-person canvassing to win this race.

This race isn’t just about what happens in Louisiana. It is about whether or not Congress will push for the progress we need.
We have an opportunity to expand the power of progressives in the House while electing a progressive leader who will break down barriers by becoming the first Black woman to ever be elected to Congress from Louisiana.
Karen will fight for a living wage, Medicare for all, and racial justice in the halls of Congress, but with her opponent taking money from fossil fuel executives, 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:
