Our democracy is at risk and your support is critical for our shared efforts to protect it. Winning elections is the best way to oppose the Trump-MAGA agenda, and we are all-in for the 2026 midterms. We invite you donate now to our chosen first slate of US House candidates and our carefully-selected grassroots allies, who need support now to prepare for both 2026 and 2028.
We only need to flip three seats to win Democratic control. Today we’re recommending a strong slate of candidates who can win their very close races — and who need early funding.
Our four incumbents face new threats from redistricting in North Carolina, Texas and Ohio. We need to retain these seats. Strong canpaigns for thse candidates will slso bring our votes in crucial Senate races in the same states.
Our four challengers in Pennsylvania, Iowa and Arizona will very likely win their primaries. Then they will immediately need cash to take on the Republican incumbents they must unseat. Let’s fund them now.
We support grassroots organizations that work in communities of color in our battleground states because it advances our shared commitment to democracy. These organizations build long-term relationships by empowering their constituents to address issues that impact their daily lives. This positions them for success in registering voters, turning out the vote for races up and down the ballot, and ensuring that all votes are counted in narrowly contested elections. Investing in these groups promotes racial justice and fights voter suppression with impacts that endure beyond a single election cycle or campaign.
We selected four groups for 2026 after a months-long assessment. All have effective leadership, significant records of accomplishment, and strong accountability practices. Read more about them below and support them now!
