Catch Fire Movement

Candidates who signed the People's Pledge

We believe that all candidates for the Democratic Party nomination should oppose independent expenditures by wealthy, corporate, and dark money groups during their primary campaign for the party nomination. These candidates pledged to oppose the big outside money and challenged their opponents to do the same.


Troy Jackson (ME - Governor)

Brad Lander (NY - 10th Congressional District)

Wala Blegay (MD - 5th Congressional District)

Kai Newkirk (AZ - 4th Congressional District)


We support the Democratic National Committee's call for all Democratic candidates to lead by example, reduce the sinister influence of corporate and dark money, and denounce such independent expenditures in our primary campaigns.


Support these candidates with generous contributions directly to their campaign committees.


Voters don’t want billionaires or corporations buying our nominations for elected office. If elected, these candidates pledged to serve the voters exclusively.
