John,

With wealthy mega-donors lining up to write big checks for candidates that will do the bidding of the corporate establishment, we’re going to need a surge of grassroots power to round out the month of May.

As we wrap up a critical primary season, continuing to contact infrequent and newly registered voters of color and white progressives is essential to winning, but organizing the way we do at DFA takes people, time, and money.

With that in mind, will you check out our full list of candidates with elections next month below then become a DFA Defender by donating $16 (our average) a month or whatever you can afford:

Our work to execute data-driven field programs, get DFA staff on the ground, run effective social media ads, hold candidate and staff training, and lead GOTV mobilization efforts are critical to the success of our candidates and requires a significant amount of resources.

So please help DFA hit its end of month goal and fuel our work to support each of these bold progressives in the primaries by becoming a DFA defender and making a recurring grassroots contribution of $16 or whatever you can afford right now. Every dollar you chip in sets us up to win.
