Meet candidates who are tough enough to win races considered tough in most years but reachable in a blue wave. If they can beat their opponents, they can beat the fossil fuel industry.
Kara Eastman (NE-02) won her primary over a DCCC-backed Democrat the old school way: hustle, personal contact, and hard work in Omaha.
Jess King (PA-11) is running for all of us in Amish country in Pennsylvania. She’s hustling -- her town halls and canvassing operations are packed every weekend.
Jessica Morse (CA-04) hustling in every corner of California's Sierra, a district that has literally burned up on the front lines of climate change, is spotlighting the GOP incumbent's climate denial in her campaign.
Jana Lynne Sanchez (TX-06) is running on a gutsy pro-solar platform in Dallas. She’s been hustling in a race that may well be the sleeper of the cycle.
