Story time.
Me: I’m running for Congress. Can you sign my petition, please?
Her: I’ve only heard about one candidate in that race. Tell me about yourself.
M: I’m a public interest lawyer. I used to work at the Virginia Poverty Law Center. We expanded SNAP for 25k families & free school meals for 10s of thousands of kids, repealed racist laws, increased TANF cash assistance twice by historic amounts, and helped 2.5M families unlock over $10M in SNAP and WIC benefits through an online tool.
H: Oh…I like you.
M: I’m running to fight for Medicare for all, tax billionaires, and get big money out of campaigns.
H: I like all that. I’m signing.
Our message is resonating through interactions like this. We are proud to share that we have surpassed 1,100 individual contributions—a major milestone for a grassroots campaign.
The next milestone is hitting the ground running - literally. We have nearly 100 volunteers signed up, many of whom are ready to canvas.
We rely on people like you—residents, small business owners, educators, and neighbors—to fuel this movement. That’s because this campaign rejects all corporate PAC and AIPAC donations because they put profits and special interests ahead of you and me.
Every $5, $10, or $25 contribution is more than a donation; it’s an investment in a campaign that truly represents what we, the people, need. Your support is critical to help launch our volunteers into the field.
If your profession or immigration status prevents you from contributing, click the button below to share this with family members/friends who can contribute. It will take every one of us to help us win.
