Hi John,
In case you missed it, our very own Amanda and Ross were just named as two of
The Time100 Next, an award that recognizes emerging leaders shaping future generations.
As if we couldn't be any more proud, the write-up was penned by someone you may have heard of, take a look:
Wow, John! We are
thrilled for Amanda and Ross to get this much-deserved recognition.
But the truth is that none of this work is possible without the incredible candidates running for office across the country, and your support. Keep up the momentum by chipping in

Since its founding, Run for Something has recruited over 125,000 young people interested in running for office, endorsed over 2,200 diverse young progressive candidates, and helped elect nearly 650 leaders for state and local office.
Over five years later, the need for more diverse young progressives to run for state and local office is as urgent as it's ever been.
Proud Boys and QAnon supporters are running for offices that oversee elections. The right to abortion, contraception, and reproductive freedom are under assault everywhere. Book banning, anti-LGBTQIA+ laws, and teacher shortages threaten not just our education system, but the well-being of students for years to come. And that's just the tip of the far-right iceberg.
We have our work cut out for us and, with your help, we will get it done.
Chip in
$5
or more to secure progressive power this election and to build the next generation of progressive leadership in 2023 and beyond.
Let's go,
Run for Something
