We elected six young leaders this year – and we're just getting started.
Jason, one of the key aspects that sets Leaders We Deserve apart is that we're playing the long game. I've said this over and over because it's super important:
Democrats need to build our bench with young progressive leaders TODAY so they can lead our country tomorrow. A young candidate we're electing to a state legislature right now could very well be the future President of the United States.
We elected six young leaders to state legislatures and Congress this year — and Jason, we're just getting started. Pitch in $5 and help keep up the fight.
In college, I studied the way conservative political movements built their power over the past 30 years, winning control of state legislatures and appointing a ton of far-right judges to advance their agenda. It didn't happen out of nowhere – conservatives and Republicans worked tirelessly to get to where they are now.
It was a major wake-up call for me – and one of the reasons I helped start Leaders We Deserve. We have a generation of young people who are ready to step up and lead. These are the progressive leaders who will write the future of this country, who will fight for our values and create the progress that we need to see. But they need our support today to win their elections and start building those movements.
I know the results of the presidential election were extremely disappointing. Like you, I'm worried about what the future holds under a second Trump administration.
But the work we're doing at Leaders We Deserve was always much bigger than the presidential election. I take comfort in the fact that we elected six new young people across the country – and that we'll continue to grow that number year after year, cycle after cycle. We are building a solid foundation for a progressive future.
Jason, can we count on you to play the long game with us? Donate $5 now to power our work electing the next generation of progressive leaders.
