Join Our Revolution’s National Organize-to-Win Call

Big electoral fights are unfolding across the country — and this is our moment to organize and take power for the progressive movement.

That’s why we’re bringing together movement leaders and candidates from across the country for our next National Organize-to-Win Call — and we want you in the room.

🗓 Monday, May 4
⏰ 8:30 PM ET / 5:30 PM PT
👉 RSVP here: https://act.ourrevolution.com/signup/OTW-May2026/

If you can’t attend, you can still be part of this fight by chipping in to power our grassroots voter turnout efforts nationwide.

Hear From Movement Leaders on the Frontlines

This call will feature some of the most exciting candidates in the country — leaders who are stepping up to challenge the status quo and fight for working people.

Tom Steyer (California Governor)

The race for California Governor is heating up — and Tom Steyer is running with one of the strongest progressive agendas in the field. He’s focused on making California more affordable, taking on utility monopolies, lowering costs, advancing single-payer healthcare, and confronting ICE abuses head-on.

Janeese Lewis George (DC Mayor)

A democratic socialist and current D.C. Councilmember, Janeese has built her career through grassroots organizing and fighting for working families. Her campaign is centered on social housing, universal childcare, and making D.C. work for everyone — not just the wealthy few.

Brad Lander (NY-10)

New York City Comptroller and longtime progressive reformer, Brad has taken on corporate landlords, pushed for pension divestment from fossil fuels, and championed workers’ rights and accountable government. Now, he’s bringing that fight to Congress.

Eric Jones (CA-04)

A community leader and progressive challenger, Eric is running a grassroots campaign focused on economic justice, healthcare access, and building a government that serves people — not corporate interests.

Matt Dunlap (ME-02)

Former Maine Secretary of State and a champion for voting rights, Matt has spent decades defending democracy, expanding ballot access, and standing up for transparency and accountability in government.

This Is About Building Power

This isn’t just another call — it’s a chance to plug into a national movement building real power.

With primaries happening now and critical elections ahead, we have a real opportunity to take back the House and Senate — but only if we do the organizing work now. That means mobilizing voters, supporting grassroots candidates, and building the infrastructure to win.

That’s exactly what Our Revolution is doing — and this call is your chance to be part of it.

👉 RSVP now: https://act.ourrevolution.com/signup/OTW-May2026/

Because when we organize, we win. ✊

Janeese Lewis George for DC Mayor

By ALL, DC, Endorsement

Janeese Lewis George for DC Mayor

Our Revolution is proud to endorse Janeese Lewis George for Mayor of Washington, D.C. because she isn’t just talking about change — she has spent her career fighting for it.

A Ward 4 Councilmember and labor ally, Janeese made history as the first self-described democratic socialist elected to the D.C. Council in decades. She ran — and won — on a grassroots, small-donor campaign that centered working people. 

Now, Janeese is running a people-first campaign for Mayor focused on affordability, equity, and building a city that works for everyone — not just the wealthy few.

Her platform directly takes on the crises facing working families:

  • Universal Childcare: Expanding subsidies so every D.C. family can afford care 
  • Social Housing: Investing in publicly owned, mixed-income housing to tackle skyrocketing rents 
  • Workers & Families First: Fighting for good jobs, strong labor protections, and economic justice
  • Immigrant Justice: Ending cooperation between local authorities and federal immigration enforcement 
  • Community Safety: Investing in prevention, public services, and accountability — not failed status quo approaches
  • Affordable City for All: Tackling the cost of housing, childcare, transportation, and small business survival 

This is a comprehensive agenda rooted in the idea that government should serve people — not corporations and big money interests.

Janeese is challenging a political establishment that has held power in D.C. for decades — and she’s doing it the same way she’s always led: by organizing. She is offering a clear alternative to politics as usual — one that uplifts working people, renters, families, and communities too often left behind.

Janeese represents the next generation of leaders carrying that movement forward at the local level — where real change can take root.

When we organize, we win.

Kiernan Majerus-Collins for Maine House (HD-95)

By ALL, Endorsement, ME

Kiernan Majerus-Collins for Maine House (HD-95)

We need leaders who will fight — not fold. That’s why Our Revolution is proud to endorse Kiernan Majerus-Collins for Maine House of Representatives, District 95.

Kiernan isn’t a career politician, he’s a civil rights and immigration attorney who has dedicated his legal work to protecting the constitutional rights of poor and working-class people — ensuring that justice isn’t just for those who can afford it. 

He’s also served his community directly, including on the Lewiston School Committee, where he advocated for students and families and helped shape local education policy. 

This is the kind of leadership we need: rooted in community, grounded in service, and committed to justice.

A Bold Progressive Agenda for Maine

Kiernan is running on a platform that puts working people first and takes on the core challenges facing Mainers:

  • Lowering the cost of living and making Maine more affordable
  • Building more affordable housing to address the housing crisis
  • Defending immigrant rights and standing up to discrimination
  • Taking on climate change with urgent, forward-looking solutions
  • Strengthening democracy and the rule of law for everyone 

This is a clear, values-driven agenda that recognizes a simple truth: government should work for people — not powerful interests.

Kiernan understands the impact of economic injustice and political neglect. His campaign is about ensuring those voices are not only heard — but centered in policymaking. As he puts it, governing means “remembering that everyone counts.” 

Kiernan represents a new generation of leaders stepping up to carry forward the fight for economic justice, civil rights, and a more inclusive democracy.

When we organize, we win. ✊

Jamie Raskin for Re-Election to Congress

By ALL, Endorsement, MD

Jamie Raskin for Re-Election to Congress

At a time when our democracy is under attack and working people are demanding bold action on economic justice, climate, and civil rights, we need leaders who will stand firm — no matter the pressure.

That’s why Our Revolution is proud to endorse Congressman Jamie Raskin for re-election.

Jamie Raskin has become a national leader in the fight to defend our democracy.

A former constitutional law professor, Raskin brought his deep expertise — and moral clarity — to Congress, where he has been a leading voice against authoritarianism and corruption. He served as lead impeachment manager during Donald Trump’s second impeachment, and he’s been a consistent champion for working people and progressive change.

As a member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, he has backed policies that align with the core values of the political revolution:

  • Medicare for All 
  • Bold climate action
  • Strong labor rights
  • Voting rights and democratic reforms
  • Economic justice

Rep. Raskin has also been a vocal advocate for student debt relief, campaign finance reform, and getting big money out of politics — recognizing that our democracy cannot function when it’s dominated by billionaires and corporate interests.

He understands that the fight for democracy is inseparable from the fight for economic justice.

He’s consistently taken on corporate influence and defended the role of government in serving the public good — not private profit. Whether it’s pushing for stronger oversight, supporting antitrust action, or backing reforms to curb the influence of big money in elections, Raskin has been a reliable ally in the fight to rebalance power toward working people.

Before Congress, Raskin served in the Maryland State Senate, where he built a reputation as a progressive reformer — passing legislation to expand civil rights, protect consumers, and strengthen democratic participation.

Throughout his career, he has stayed closely connected to grassroots movements — listening to constituents, engaging with organizers, and using his platform to amplify the voices of those too often left out of the political process.

Jamie Raskin represents the kind of leadership this moment demands.

Lateefah Simon for Re-Election in CA-12

By ALL, CA, Endorsement

Lateefah Simon for Re-Election in CA-12

At a time when corporate power, rising costs, and political dysfunction are leaving working people behind, we need leaders who don’t just talk about change — they fight for it.

That’s why Our Revolution is proud to endorse Congresswoman Lateefah Simon for re-election in California’s 12th District.

Lateefah Simon’s story is rooted in struggle, resilience, and organizing.

A lifelong Bay Area resident, civil rights advocate, and MacArthur “genius grant” recipient, Lateefah has spent decades fighting for communities that have been pushed to the margins — especially young people, women, and communities of color. 

She first rose to national prominence as a youth organizer, leading the Young Women’s Freedom Center and transforming how the justice system supports young women impacted by incarceration. 

From there, she helped shape criminal justice reform efforts, served on the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) Board, and led major racial justice philanthropy efforts — always centering equity and opportunity. 

Today, she brings that same movement-driven leadership to Congress.

A Progressive Voice in Congress

Since taking office in 2025, Lateefah has aligned herself with the progressive wing of the Democratic Party — serving as a Vice Chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and fighting for policies that put working people first. 

Her agenda reflects the core values of the political revolution:

  • Medicare for All and universal healthcare
  • A $15+ minimum wage and strong labor protections
  • Expanded safety net programs like Medicaid and food assistance
  • A federal jobs guarantee
  • Investments in affordable housing and transit equity

She has also been a strong advocate for criminal justice reform, reentry support, and policies that reduce mass incarceration. 

Standing Up to Corporate Power

Lateefah has been clear: our government should serve people — not corporations.

She has taken on corporate polluters and supported bold climate action, earning backing from environmental justice organizations for her commitment to transitioning away from fossil fuels and protecting frontline communities. 

She has also been outspoken in opposing excessive military spending and endless war, calling for a reorientation of federal resources toward healthcare, education, and community investment. 

This is leadership that prioritizes people over profit.

Carrying Forward a Progressive Legacy

Lateefah represents a district long represented by the legendary Rep. Barbara Lee — and she is carrying forward that legacy of courage, independence, and principled leadership.

Like Barbara Lee, Lateefah is willing to stand up when it matters most — even when it’s not politically easy.

Her work in Congress — from supporting care workers to advancing protections for crime survivors — reflects a deep commitment to dignity, justice, and economic security for all. 

Lateefah Simon isn’t just a member of Congress — she’s a movement leader — and we’re proud to stand behind her in this run for re-election.

Amanda Gonzalez for Colorado Secretary of State

By ALL, CO, Endorsement

Amanda Gonzalez for Colorado Secretary of State

At a time when our democracy is under attack, Colorado needs a leader who will protect the vote, expand access, and take on the influence of big money in politics.

That’s why Our Revolution is proud to endorse Amanda Gonzalez for Colorado Secretary of State.

Amanda Gonzalez is a voting rights attorney and democracy advocate who has spent her career fighting to ensure government works for everyone — not just the powerful. As the elected Clerk & Recorder for Jefferson County, she oversees elections for hundreds of thousands of voters and has worked to make them more accessible, secure, and transparent.

Before serving in elected office, Amanda was the executive director of Colorado Common Cause, where she helped advance reforms to strengthen democracy — including expanding ballot access and reducing the influence of money in politics.

She has been a leader in building a more inclusive democracy — helping pass policies like automatic voter registration, increasing secure ballot drop boxes, and supporting independent redistricting to ensure fair representation.

Amanda’s campaign is rooted in a simple but powerful belief: our democracy should belong to the people.

She represents a new generation of leadership — grounded in protecting voting rights, expanding access, and ensuring transparency and accountability in our elections.

At Our Revolution, we believe that defending democracy means fighting for systems that work for everyday people — not corporations or special interests.

Amanda Gonzalez has spent her career doing exactly that.

We’re proud to stand with her in this fight — and ready to help build the grassroots power needed to win.

Join us. Let’s protect our democracy together.

Melat Kiros for U.S. Congress in CO-01

By ALL, CO, Endorsement

Melat Kiros for U.S. Congress in CO-01

In one of the most progressive districts in the country, voters in Colorado’s 1st deserve a representative who will fight as boldly as they do.

That’s why Our Revolution is proud to endorse Melat Kiros for U.S. Congress.

Melat Kiros is a lawyer, PhD student, and grassroots candidate running to bring a new generation of leadership to Washington — accountable to working people, not corporate PACs or entrenched political power.

Her campaign is rooted in a clear, unapologetic progressive vision.

Melat is running on a platform that includes:

  • Medicare for All — guaranteeing healthcare as a human right
  • Housing First — treating housing as a public good and ending homelessness
  • Universal childcare — ensuring every family has the support they need
  • Ending corporate influence in politics — rejecting corporate PAC money
  • An arms embargo rooted in human rights and accountability in U.S. foreign policy

She has been clear: in the richest country in the world, housing, healthcare, food, and education should be guaranteed rights — not privileges.

Melat’s candidacy is also about challenging a political status quo that has failed to deliver for working people. In a district like Denver — where inequality, displacement, and rising costs are reshaping communities — she is making the case that it’s time for leadership willing to take on corporate power and fight for structural change.

This is a campaign powered by people — not billionaires.

And it’s part of a broader movement to transform the Democratic Party into one that truly represents the needs of everyday Americans.

At Our Revolution, we believe that real change comes from candidates who are willing to stand up, speak out, and organize — even when it comes at a personal cost.

Melat Kiros is that kind of leader.

We’re proud to stand with her in Colorado’s 1st District — and we’re ready to help build the grassroots power needed to win.

Join us. Let’s organize for a government that works for all of us.
