Midwest Values PAC raises money and gives it where we think it will do the most good. This past election cycle we had, modestly, a spectacular record of success! We gave to winning races for state secretaries of state, U.S. Senator, House, state legislature.
In the 2022 election cycle in Minnesota we invested over $85,000.00 to support candidates–giving them the tools to campaign, building long-term digital infrastructure, and, of course, door knocking! Together we helped flip the state senate, giving Governor Walz a Democratic trifecta in the state legislature!)
But perhaps the best thing we did over the last two years was raise and give over $1.2 million to UNITE-HERE, the hospitality union, in NV, PA, GA, and AZ. Their ground game was key in our adding a seat in the Senate and winning key governor and secretary of state races.

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.
