John,

What if I told you that St. Louis, Missouri is leading the way for the
progressive movement?

Now, you might be thinking, wait what... Missouri… progressive?

Well, that’s right.

While we have entire states led by Republicans refusing to do their part
and take in Afghan refugees, DFA endorsed St. Louis Mayor Tishuara Jones
is leading the effort to welcome at least 1,000 refugees to the city.

In a well thought out statement, Jones strongly laid out her plan saying
“We have been actively working with our community stakeholders to build
capacity and mobilize the necessary resources to attract, welcome, and
resettle new families to this community."

Tishuara Jones' unwavering, steadfast leadership makes it clear that
Mayors matter.

That’s why we’ve endorsed 4 outstanding mayoral candidates running in
crucial elections this fall.

* Tameika Isaac Devine - Columbia, South Carolina
* India Walton - Buffalo, New York
* Joyce Craig - Manchester, New Hampshire
* Sharetta Smith - Lima, Ohio

DFA has been working for years to elect transformational Mayors in cities
across America -- and now we need your help to ramp up our get out the
vote efforts for these four amazing candidates this fall. Will you chip in
$10 now to help DFA build local power by electing four more mayors who

The Republican Party understands the huge importance of local elections,
it’s why they have spent hundreds of millions of dollars on them. They
know they can use their power on the local level to attack unions, oppose
a living wage, ignore police brutality, and protect white supremacy.

We need to make sure governments across America are filled with elected
officials who are ready to fight back against Republican xenophobia and
hatred. That includes our cities, where crucial battles are waged every
day for the future of our country.

DFA has always endorsed candidates at the local level, alongside our
endorsements for state and federal races. Many of these candidates have
gone on to become national leaders -- after all, Bernie Sanders got his
start winning a race for Mayor of Burlington, Vermont by just 10 votes.

It's time to elect a new generation of leaders -- starting in cities.

We can’t do this without you. Donate $10 right now to help elect the next
generation of progressive mayors that will continue to transform cities
across America.

Thank you for helping build grassroots progressive power on the local
level.
