For decades, Republicans and conservative activists have been investing in building power in state legislatures across the country, succeeding in taking complete control of state governments in 23 states. Those states have been the laboratories for testing and perfecting the anti-democratic playbook that’s led to the crisis we’re in now.
That’s why we’re fighting back at the state level on issues from abortion rights to climate to voting rights. Especially now when it seems like our representatives in D.C. are perpetually unable to act, state legislatures have the power to impact our lives today and shape our future.
History has proven that when we flip state legislatures, like we have in New Mexico, Colorado, and Nevada, we can do big things, like protect abortion rights, pass life-saving gun violence prevention, and safeguard our democracy. What’s more, our next generation of leaders are passing life-improving policies in a state legislature today.
That’s why we’re working with The States Project to support the most competitive state legislative candidates in states where we can make a difference. Your donation will power the most critical work in ten states with three clear priorities: flip chambers, defend Democratic majorities, and prevent Republican supermajorities.
