Earlier this year, you supported our Maria's List slate of Georgia candidates and organizations that turned the state blue in November! Now we ask that you join us in contributing to our Deep Democracy Georgia organizations that will help take back the senate for Democrats in January!
The Organization:
The New Georgia Project (NGP) is a c3 non-partisan organization dedicated to voter registration and the civic engagement of Georgians. Founded in 2013 by Stacey Abrams, to date they have registered nearly 400,000 people from underrepresented communities to vote in Georgia. For the January run-off, they are on the front lines of demanding protections for, and expanding access to, the upcoming run-off election.
Background:
Maria’s List is a woman-powered political communication and donor hub. Its mission is to comb the country for amazing women and people of color candidates using electoral research as well campaign and movement analysis.
How it works:
We identify and support progressive women of color leaders and organizations in congressional districts and county-level down-ballot races with the goal of boosting turnout in low-propensity, high Democratic-support regions in key swing states while electing progressive women of color leaders in state legislatures.
Maria’s List national will continue its strategy of funding the Southern progressive candidates and organizations that will deliver the turnout needed to elect Democrats to the White House, Congress, and state legislatures.
