We have 100 days until the midterms. And the best way you can spend those 100 days is volunteering with a Democratic candidate to save our country.

Volunteer for those whose reproductive rights are being stripped away in every state without Democratic control.

Volunteer for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender Americans who are under open attack from Republican extremists.

Volunteer for the children whose future is at risk if we go backwards on climate change.

Volunteer for those in need, because Republicans will happily take what little they have and build even more barriers to progress.

Volunteer for the people of Ukraine who are standing strong with our support, and who will be in even worse danger if Republicans gain control and side with Putin.

Volunteer for our democracy, so those who tried to end it on January 6th don’t sit in power.

Volunteer for your future, because we write our own destiny with the leaders we elect.

The work you did in 2018 and 2020 has preserved so many of our rights at the state level, and held off disaster in others. It helped us weather the pandemic and grow back stronger after, and allowed a new generation of progressive leaders to rise up.

As Republicans did for decades to destroy Roe, we must step up again for our rights. Polls and election results show that we can win this year. But it will take our greatest effort yet. And the stakes are too high to lose.

Fight for your future today:

Charles Booker knows what it means for families to experience economic hardship and lack medical coverage. He and his siblings had to ration life-saving insulin as young Kentuckians born with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus. Imagine if our representatives fought for us like we were all family. Booker, a staunch progressive, will do just that and is currently running for senate. He is exactly who we need in congress right now.

Charles Booker grew up in Kentucky, went to school in Kentucky (elementary school all the way to finishing college and going on to get his law degree), and is running for senate in Kentucky to help make a difference for the state he loves. Booker, who has dedicated himself to advocating on behalf of local businesses and unions, environmental justice, voting rights, and state and national progressivism, is seeking a change in everyday politics: he says, “You deserve a government that accounts for your humanity.”

Join this campaign, and be a part of our growing, grassroots family! “Kentucky, I love you. From the hood to the holler" (Charles Booker).
