Here’s something scary: This is your last chance to donate to Midwest Values PAC before our first major elections since Trump slithered back into the White House.

Here’s another scary thought: waking up the day after Election Day feeling like we didn’t do enough to help Democrats win governorships in New Jersey and Virginia or make sure Prop 50 passes in California. 

Let’s not have that nightmare.

We don’t want your candy. Well, unless it’s mini Snickers, or Hershey’s nuggets, Franni’s favorite — but seriously, keep it. What we need is your support so Midwest Values PAC can help Democrats win now and build the momentum we’ll need to flip the House and Senate in 2026.

Thanks,

Al

P.S. I hope this email didn’t frighten you. I’m LYING! I hope it did.

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.
