I have a special event coming up for you on May 18th to help Midwest Values PAC. But it would be too self-serving for me to tell you about it, so I’m going to turn this over to Ashley.

Thanks, Al! This is Ashley! And I’m excited to announce that we’re going to have a special BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION for Al’s 72nd birthday!!!

And it’s going to be on ZOOM!!!!! That way you can all come!

And here’s something that’s extra, extra special! Dana Carvey is joining Al!!!! See? Because the Church Lady used to say, “Isn’t that special!” 

And when you register with a contribution, you’ll be able to submit questions for Al and Dana. Or to ask President Biden! Or President George H.W. Bush! Or Ross Perot! Or Jimmy Stewart! Or one of the Beatles!!!

Or Bernie Sanders! Or Susan Collins! Or Chuck Grassley! Or Mitch McConnell!

It promises to be a fun time. The Zoom party is on May 18th at 8 p.m. ET. All you have to do is contribute $5 or more, and we’ll send you an invite for the party. Proceeds go toward MVP’s efforts to support progressive candidates and causes.

Thanks, Ashley! This is Al again. Isn’t Ashley the best!?

Well, I hope you all can make it on May 18th!

Thanks!

Al

Somehow, it’s been 20 years since I started Midwest Values PAC to help Democrats win elections — from progressive organizations to state legislatures to Congress to the White House — who share the values I grew up with in St. Louis Park, Minnesota.

Since 2006, Midwest Values PAC has invested more than $4 million in 341 candidates and organizations — and counting. 

Of course, none of this happens without you (or supporters like you) who care enough to pitch in.

As we mark our 20th anniversary, the work is more urgent than ever. This year, we have a big job: flip the House, take the Senate, and win up and down the ballot at the state and local level.

To mark our 20th year, we’ve set an ambitious goal: 26,000 contributions by Election Day 2026.

Thanks for being part of this fight, and for sticking with us for 20 years (or for just joining — welcome!).

P.S. Over the years, okay, decades, we’ve helped Democrats win tough races all across the country by investing early, intelligently, and strategically. That’s how you flip seats. That’s how you protect democracy. And that’s how you stop the worst impulses of a president who never should have been president in the first place.
