John,
Over the last couple of months, we have begun to roll out our endorsements for 2022 because with the big advantage the wealthy elite has, organizing needs to begin now.
We’re working with local organizations on the ground and coordinating efforts in each targeted state and district we need to win.
I know 2022 seems far off, but it is not. The reality is Republicans haven't waited to get started, and neither have we.
Because we spend dynamically based on the needs of each specific campaign and we coordinate directly with the candidate and their staff to eliminate redundancy, share data, and develop messaging, every donation you make has a tangible impact on the outcome of these elections. Check out our full list of current endorsements below, then rush a contribution to DFA and support these incredible progressive candidates by fueling our campaign to win.

Each of these candidates is running to put the interests of their communities first. They’re not afraid of the tough fights or speaking up for progressive values.
Every seat we win builds progressive power while also beating back Trump Republicans and corporate Democrats.
If we want to keep Republicans from gaining power we need these candidates fighting for us.
Thank you for pitching in to help DFA elect more progressives to all levels of office in all 50 states.
– Chris
