Democratic legislators are the frontlines of the movement to defeat Trumpism and protect our democracy. You are receiving this message from the DLCC's grassroots network.

I'd like to personally welcome you to the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee and share a little bit about our work – and why it's so important. First things first: The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee is the official party committee dedicated to electing Democrats to statehouses. And during the 2022 midterm elections, that's exactly what we did with the help of our grassroots supporters: - We FLIPPED chambers in Minnesota, Michigan, and Pennsylvania for the first time in decades.
- We defended must-hold Democratic trifectas in Colorado, Maine, and New Mexico – and created FOUR more.
- And we protected the veto power of two Democratic governors in key states – Wisconsin and North Carolina – giving them a critical tool to fight back against extreme Republican legislation.
This was no small feat – and we're proud of all these wins. But since there are no "off-years" with state legislative elections happening every year, our work at the state legislative level is still underway. Right now we're already hard at work planning to flip state legislatures in 2023, protect our democracy during the 2024 election, and to build Democratic power in the years to come. And that's why you being on this team is so important. If we're going to have a real impact on protecting our democracy and our most fundamental rights, we need to be prepared to invest in critical races so that MAGA extremists don't dominate state legislatures or oversee future elections. So I'm asking: will you take the next step and make your first-ever grassroots contribution to the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee? We need your support right now to lay the groundwork for future elections to ensure we're able to build on the midterm victories and be prepared for anything that comes our way. >> If you've stored your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will process immediately. | Most people tune out after Election Day, but that's when our most important work begins for future elections: Researching key races, laying the groundwork with organizers, recruiting top-notch candidates, and more. And after record attacks on some of our most fundamental rights: Abortion bans, attacks on LGBTQ+ rights, and bills that undercut democracy by making it harder for people to vote, it's never been more important to protect and defend state legislatures. So much progress can be made at the state level – and we're counting on you to take the next step to help create a better America for us all. So please chip in a grassroots contribution to help state Democrats in the battles to come. Any amount – $7, $25 – will have a huge impact on our work to protect and defend state legislatures. >> We're so glad you're here. Thanks for being a part of this fight. Sincerely, Jessica Post President, Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee DONATE >> |
