Ro Khanna for Re-Election to Congress

By ALL, CA, Endorsement

Ro Khanna for Re-Election to Congress

 

For nearly a decade in Congress, Rep. Ro Khanna has proven that bold progressive leadership can deliver real results. That’s why Our Revolution is proud to endorse Ro Khanna for re-election to represent California’s 17th Congressional District.

Ro has never been afraid to challenge powerful interests—whether they’re billionaires, Big Pharma, the military-industrial complex, or political insiders. He has consistently used his platform to fight for working people, defend democracy, and build a government that puts people before corporate power.

Ro’s commitment to our movement runs deep. As a National Co-Chair of Bernie Sanders’ 2020 presidential campaign, he helped advance a vision of Medicare for All, economic justice, climate action, and a government accountable to ordinary Americans—not wealthy donors. That same vision continues to guide his work in Congress.

Throughout his time in office, Ro has been one of Congress’s strongest champions for universal healthcare, repeatedly backing legislation to guarantee healthcare as a human right, lower prescription drug prices, expand Medicare, and tackle medical debt. He argues that no American should go bankrupt because they get sick and remains committed to making universal healthcare a reality.

Ro has also emerged as one of the leading voices in Congress against endless war.

He has led bipartisan efforts to reclaim Congress’s constitutional authority over decisions of war and peace, introducing War Powers legislation to prevent unauthorized U.S. military action against Iran and arguing that America should invest in jobs and healthcare—not more endless wars.

Ro has consistently called for an end to the devastating loss of civilian life in Gaza and for U.S. policy to prioritize diplomacy, human rights, and lasting peace. He has been among the most outspoken members of Congress demanding that the United States use its leverage to stop the killing and pursue a just resolution to the conflict.

Ro is also demonstrating that no one is above the law.

He helped lead the successful push for greater transparency surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein case through the bipartisan Epstein Files Transparency Act, arguing that the American people deserve the truth and that powerful individuals must be held accountable. His work forced the release of thousands of previously sealed records and challenged the culture of secrecy that has protected elites for too long.

Whether he’s fighting corporate monopolies, standing up for workers, expanding healthcare, or defending our democracy, Ro Khanna has consistently shown what principled progressive leadership looks like.

At a time when too many politicians are willing to compromise with corporate interests or remain silent in the face of injustice, Ro continues to lead with courage, integrity, and a commitment to the people-powered movement that elected him.

Our Revolution is proud to endorse Ro Khanna for re-election to Congress.

Together, we can continue building a Congress that fights for working people, challenges corporate power, protects our democracy, and delivers the bold progressive change this moment demands.

When we organize, we win.

Francesca Hong for Governor of Wisconsin

 

Our Revolution is proud to endorse Francesca Hong for Governor of Wisconsin.

Francesca Hong has spent her life fighting for working people. The daughter of immigrants, a chef, small business owner, community organizer, and mom, she understands firsthand the challenges facing families who work hard every day and still struggle to get ahead. 

Her journey from the service industry to the Wisconsin State Legislature reflects the values that have guided her public service: dignity, opportunity, and a belief that government should work for everyone.

Francesca has made clear that Wisconsin’s future should not be dictated by corporate interests or wealthy insiders. She is running a grassroots campaign powered by people, not corporate PACs, and is building a movement that brings together workers, families, and communities across the state.

She continues to center the needs of working families and advocate for policies that help people thrive rather than merely survive. That’s why Francesca is committed to the fight for Medicare for All, free school meals, universal childcare, higher wages and paid leave, tenant rights, and closing tax loopholes for billionaires and big corporations. 

At a time when too many politicians are beholden to wealthy donors, Francesca is demonstrating what genuine grassroots leadership looks like. She understands that real change comes from organizing people, building community, and giving ordinary Wisconsinites a meaningful voice in the decisions that affect their lives.

Wisconsin deserves a governor who will put working people first, challenge entrenched power, and govern with courage and conviction.

Our Revolution is proud to stand with Francesca and the thousands of grassroots supporters across Wisconsin who are fighting for a more just, democratic, and equitable future.

When we organize, we win.

Fighting Big Tech’s Destructive Data Centers

Fighting Big Tech’s Destructive Data Centers

 

Across the country, communities are standing up to powerful corporations against the unchecked expansion of AI data centers.

From small towns to major cities, residents are organizing to protect their water, energy resources, public health, and local democracy from massive facilities being pushed by some of the world’s richest corporations.

Now, these local fights are coming together into a national movement.

That’s why Our Revolution is proud be part of the National Coalition to Stop Data Centers, a growing alliance of grassroots, environmental, and advocacy organizations working to challenge the rapid expansion of AI infrastructure and demand policies that put people before corporate profits.

At the same time, Bernie Sanders is bringing this fight directly to Washington.

Bernie is calling for a federal moratorium on new data center construction until Congress establishes clear protections for communities, workers, consumers, and the environment. It’s a simple idea: before Big Tech is allowed to build thousands of new facilities across the country, we need safeguards to protect our water, our power grids, and the communities forced to live with the consequences.

That’s why we’re you to stand with Bernie and our movement and add your name to call on Congress enact a federal moratorium on new data centers.

The urgency couldn’t be clearer.

Massive data centers are being proposed at breakneck speed across the country. These facilities consume enormous amounts of land, electricity, and water while generating extraordinary profits for technology corporations and investors.

Communities are increasingly asking a basic question: who benefits?

Too often, local residents are left with higher utility costs, strained infrastructure, constant industrial noise, and growing concerns about water availability, while corporations collect subsidies, tax breaks, and public resources.

The threat is especially severe in regions already struggling with drought.

A recent investigation found that of the 809 new data centers currently planned across the United States, 517 are slated for communities that have experienced drought conditions within the last year.

As public awareness grows, resistance is growing too.

In Monterey Park, California, voters approved the nation’s first ban on data centers by an overwhelming 86 percent. In Ohio, state leaders have begun pulling back tax incentives for data center projects amid growing concerns about their impacts on communities and energy systems.

The message is becoming impossible to ignore:

Communities want a say in decisions that affect their future.

That’s exactly what the National Coalition to Stop Data Centers is fighting for.

The coalition brings together organizations from across the country—including Our Revolution, Third Act, GreenLatinos, MediaJustice, Food & Water Watch, North Carolina Environmental Justice Network, Citizens Action Coalition, Pennsylvania Physicians for Social Responsibility, and many others—to support local organizing efforts and build national pressure for stronger protections.

We’re already seeing state and local leaders step up. In Pennsylvania, State Senator Katie Muth is leading efforts to establish a statewide moratorium on new data centers while communities assess their environmental and economic impacts.

At Our Revolution, we’re mobilizing our grassroots network to support these fights on the ground while building support for Bernie’s federal moratorium.

Because this fight isn’t just about technology.

It’s about whether billion-dollar corporations get to reshape our communities without accountability.

It’s about whether public resources like water and energy are managed for the public good or sacrificed for private profit.

And it’s about whether ordinary people have a voice in decisions that will shape their communities for decades to come.

The AI boom is accelerating.

Our movement must too.

Stand with Bernie Sanders and the National Coalition to Stop Data Centers. Sign the petition demanding a federal moratorium on new AI data centers until strong protections are in place for communities across America.

When we organize, we win.

Evan Menist for New York Senate District 39

Evan Menist for New York State Senate

Our Revolution is proud to endorse Evan Menist for New York State Senate in District 39.

Evan is running because he believes our political and economic systems are too often shaped by billionaires and corporate special interests instead of working people and families. His campaign is focused on putting power back in the hands of everyday people and building a Hudson Valley where everyone has a fair chance to thrive.

What stands out about Evan is that he brings together experience in local government, public policy, and community leadership with a clear commitment to economic justice.

A longtime resident of Poughkeepsie, Evan worked his way through school while holding multiple jobs, including as an IT technician, bartender, barback, and security staff member. He later earned a Master of Public Administration while continuing to work full-time.

Evan currently serves on the Poughkeepsie Common Council, where he has fought for tenant protections, housing affordability, tax relief for seniors, government accountability, and sustainable development. He has also worked as a policy researcher and urban planner, helping communities across the Hudson Valley address housing, infrastructure, and economic development challenges.

Today, Evan serves as Co-Executive Director of the Poughkeepsie Farm Project, a nonprofit dedicated to feeding families, educating youth, and building a more resilient regional food system.

His campaign is centered on a bold vision for the Mid-Hudson Valley.

Evan supports universal healthcare through the New York Health Act, universal childcare, and community housing. He argues that these policies can reduce structural inequities, strengthen working families, and ensure that everyone—regardless of background—has the opportunity to succeed.

He is also a strong advocate for worker and union power. Coming from a union family and relying on union healthcare through his wife, Evan has pledged to use the visibility of elected office to support union organizing drives, contract campaigns, and strikes.

At a moment when too many New Yorkers are struggling with housing costs, healthcare expenses, and economic insecurity, Evan is focused on building a government that works for regular people—not wealthy interests.

That’s why Our Revolution is proud to support Evan Menist for State Senate.

When we organize, we win.

Adam Bojak for NY State Assembly (AD-149)

 

Our Revolution is proud to join Bernie Sanders in endorsing Adam Bojak for NY State Assembly in District 149, who’s running on a bold vision for a healthier, housed, and more affordable Western New York.

Adam has represented everyday New Yorkers as a Family Court and housing rights attorney — helping tenants facing housing disputes, providing free legal services and advice to people dealing with housing problems, and working with families navigating tough challenges.

Now, Adam is bringing that experience to the fight for systemic change.

Adam believes Albany should do more to stand up to corporate greed and ensure that every New Yorker can live a stable and dignified life.

His campaign is built around a simple idea: when our needs are met and the rich pay their fair share, we can build stronger communities for generations to come.

That means fighting for affordable housing and publicly owned social housing. It means protecting tenants, preventing unjust evictions, and stopping vulnerable homeowners from losing their homes to property tax foreclosures. As a housing rights attorney, Adam has seen these challenges firsthand—and he’s running to do something about them.

Adam is also a champion for universal healthcare. He supports the New York Health Act and believes every New Yorker should have healthcare free at the point of service. He is committed to protecting Medicaid, defending reproductive rights, and ensuring access to gender-affirming care.

On labor, Adam recognizes that workers and unions are the backbone of our economy. He’s fighting to strengthen worker protections and address the growing threat of workplace surveillance and unchecked AI systems that can be used against workers.

He also supports investments in public infrastructure, strong public schools, and public services that improve people’s lives—not policies that prioritize corporate profits over community needs.

That’s why Adam Bojak has earned the support of Our Revolution, Bernie Sanders, organized labor, and grassroots progressives across New York.

Western New York deserves a representative who will fight for working people, challenge corporate power, and help build a healthy, housed, and affordable future for all.

When we organize, we win.

Patrick Nelson for NY State Senate (SD-44)

By ALL, Endorsement, NY

Patrick Nelson for NY State Senate (SD-44)

Our Revolution is proud to endorse Patrick Nelson for New York State Senate in District 44.

Patrick represents exactly the kind of bold, independent leadership our movement needs more of in Albany.

A two-term Village Trustee in Stillwater, Patrick has repeatedly won elections in a community that votes more than 60% Republican. He has done it by focusing on the issues that matter most to working people and by proving that progressive values can win anywhere when candidates are willing to fight for them.

Just as importantly, Patrick has never accepted contributions from corporations, corporate PACs, or lobbyists. Patrick is campaigning for a simple principle: our government should answer to people, not powerful donors. That’s why he supports banning corporate contributions in New York elections.

Patrick is sounding the alarm about the unchecked power of Big Tech and artificial intelligence. While corporations race to build massive energy-hungry data centers across the country, Patrick is calling for a three-year statewide moratorium on new data center projects so communities can fully understand their impacts on energy costs, infrastructure, the environment, and local democracy before it’s too late.

He also supports a New York Constitutional Right to Talk to a Human Being, ensuring people aren’t trapped navigating automated systems when seeking critical services. He believes life-altering decisions—from healthcare to housing to public services—should be made by people, not algorithms.

Patrick is fighting to make New York more affordable. From universal healthcare at the state level to his Affordable Housing Communities proposal would provide incentives for local governments to build lower-cost rental housing and homeownership opportunities, he has real plans to improve life for working families.

In an era when too many politicians are content to manage problems, Patrick Nelson is offering real solutions. He is taking on corporate influence, defending democratic accountability, fighting for affordable housing, and ensuring technology serves the public interest—not the other way around.

That’s why Our Revolution is proud to endorse Patrick Nelson for New York State Senate District 44.

When we organize, we win.
