Dancing in the streets

Just in case you missed it, something pretty remarkable happened last Sunday in Hungary.

The Strait of…crypto?

Did you know that Iran is making boats pay to get through the straight of Hormuz…in crypto!?

Trump’s hogwash budget …

We already know Donald Trump cares more about this war than he does about daycare, Medicaid, or Medicare. He said it himself on camera this month.

HUGE upset in…Florida?

Just last week, I emailed you about how a Democrat won the mayor’s race in Boca Raton (yes, that Boca Raton) for the first time in three decades…by five votes. Five.

Transparency

We’re all about transparency here at Midwest Values PAC. That’s why I want to show you something — because when you give your hard-earned money to help Democrats win, you deserve to know where it’s going.

Look what she did!

An unnecessary war and high gas prices getting you down? I get it. Sometimes — okay, most of the time — the news feels like a dumpster fire inside a train wreck.

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.

DONATE HERE

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.
