ARE YOU TERRIFIED YET?

For more than three weeks House Republicans have left Congress leaderless and powerless.

As the Middle East threatens to metastasize and we dispatch two carrier groups to the Mediterranean, Alabama Sen. Tommy Tuberville continues to block the confirmation of hundreds of top military officers.

Judges place gag orders on Donald Trump to prevent court officers from being assaulted by nutcase MAGA goons.

Could it be any clearer that today’s Republican party is out of control?  And yet, polls continue to show that next fall’s election is completely up in the air. And so is our democracy.

Midwest Values PAC is determined to do everything we can to prevent the nightmare that could very well happen if we all don’t mobilize our resources to win elections next fall at every level.

Thanks,

Al

P.S. Do I sound alarmed? Think about this. Trump won in 2016 because of third parties like Jill Stein’s Green Party. With Cornell West and Robert Kennedy Jr. both running, it will be absolutely crucial to have the resources to make the case for President Biden and Democrats up and down the ticket. Please pitch in!

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.
