Five reasons to give $5 today
We’re about to ask you to chip in a $5 donation split between State Democrats Committee and Roy Cooper’s Senate campaign in North Carolina – but first, we want to give you five reasons why it’s so important that you do:
- Experts say that Democrats have no chance at retaking the Senate without winning North Carolina’s toss-up seat.
- Fortunately, The New York Times reported that North Carolina is the best pickup opportunity for Democrats on the map.
- GOP super PACs are committing to invest nearly $100 million so far on attack ads to stop that from happening – and this is projected to be the most expensive Senate race in history.
- Now, with a poll showing Roy neck-and-neck with his MAGA loyalist opponent, it appears the GOP’s investments are working.
- Unless we reach our $1.5 million end-of-quarter goal before June 30, we won’t have the grassroots resources to fight back.
If you care about flipping North Carolina blue, taking back the Senate for Democrats and breaking the far right’s grip on power in Washington DC, the single-best thing you can do is pitch in $5 immediately.
Now, it’s up to you. All we can do is ask: Will you donate today to help us close the gap in time?
If you've stored your info with ActBlue Express, your donation to Cooper Victory Fund and State Democrats Committee will process instantly:

Trillionaires should not exist
Jason, you might have seen the news that Elon Musk is officially a trillionaire.
Yeah, that’s not a typo. Trillionaire.
The fact that the richest man in the world is only getting richer — and he’s an extreme right-wing ideologue — should be a serious wake up call for all of us.
As a result of the Supreme Court's Citizens United decision, Elon Musk can pour as much of his fortune as he wants into our elections. The Court calls that "free speech."
In 2024, Musk spent over $277 million supporting Trump and MAGA Republicans.
So let me ask: do you and Elon Musk have an equal say in our government?
I know I don't.
It's time to fix a broken system. One that lets a trillionaire pay a smaller share of his income in taxes than a teacher, and lets a man like Musk buy off the very people sworn to protect us.
Elon spending hundreds of millions on elections is not free speech, it's legalized bribery.
In 2026, Elon has even more money to spend on bankrolling his chosen candidates. And I can guarantee you that none of those candidates are good for our country.
But here’s the good news: Leaders We Deserve doesn’t need a trillion dollars to fight back. We’re already on an incredible winning streak, and we aren’t done. We’ve endorsed double the number of candidates we did in 2024. We aren’t messing around here. We’re electing the young progressive leaders we deserve.
At Leaders We Deserve, we’re laying the groundwork and taking a generational bet to fix this broken system using the people who have the most to lose: young Americans.
I don’t have to remind you that we don’t have Elon Musk and his uber-wealthy buddies behind us. But we’re much more proud of the fact that we have YOU.
Grassroots supporters have funded every major victory Leaders We Deserve has achieved so far. And that’s exactly who we’ll be standing with in every single race.
Will you pitch in $5 or anything you can now to keep powering this fight?
Thank you,
David Hogg
