Midterm Push

We need fighters. In Congress. In our State House. In our local governments.

We need stronger, more progressive Democrats to actively fight to protect our democracy. We are working to elect those fighters here in MA and in states where flipping a seat could shift the balance of power.

On our radar

Volunteering and organizing – Participating in phone banks, text banking, and door-knocking for progressive candidates in and outside MA.

Supporting primary challenges – Actively supporting progressive candidates in our districts in the upcoming primary elections.

Engaging voters – Helping new voters and voters in underrepresented communities confirm their voter registration and turn out on election day.
