William Lawrence for Congress in MI-07

 

Our Revolution is proud to endorse William Lawrence for Congress in Michigan’s 7th Congressional District.

William is running a people-powered campaign centered on the needs of working families across Mid-Michigan.

Raised in East Lansing, William has spent his career organizing people to take on powerful interests and deliver real results. 

As a co-founder of the Sunrise Movement, he helped build one of the nation’s most influential grassroots climate organizations — securing historic investments in clean energy and good-paying jobs, including hundreds of millions of dollars invested in Michigan’s 7th District. 

William also helped found the Michigan Rent Is Too Damn High Coalition and the Mid-Michigan Tenant Resource Center, working to advance protections for renters and helping families avoid homelessness. 

William’s campaign platform reflects the kind of bold leadership this moment demands. He is focused on lowering the cost of living by expanding affordable housing, protecting Social Security, guaranteeing healthcare for all, and standing up to corporate price gouging. 

He is also calling for stronger environmental protections for Michigan’s water and farmland, greater accountability for polluters, and restoring trust in government through measures like banning stock trading by members of Congress and holding powerful interests accountable. 

Throughout his campaign, William has emphasized that Washington should work for Mid-Michigan families—not billionaires. He has pledged to build a representative’s office that listens to constituents, shows up in every community, and fights for the people who have too often been left behind. 

We’re proud to endorse William Lawrence for Congress and look forward to helping build the grassroots movement needed to send another fighter for working people to Washington.

When we organize, we win!

Nithya Raman for Mayor of Los Angeles

By ALL, CA, Endorsement

Nithya Raman for Mayor of Los Angeles

 

Nithya Raman has shown what progressive leadership looks like, and Our Revolution is proud to endorse her for Mayor of Los Angeles.

As a City Councilmember, Nithya has served as Chair of the Housing and Homelessness Committee — focused on tackling the crisis in LA while working to make city government more responsive to the people it serves.

Before running for office, Nithya spent years working alongside communities across Los Angeles to address homelessness and expand access to affordable housing. An urban planner with degrees from Harvard and MIT, she co-founded the SELAH Neighborhood Homeless Coalition, bringing together volunteers to connect unhoused neighbors with housing, services, and support. 

Nithya’s campaign is rooted in the belief that solving our biggest challenges requires both compassion and effective government. And she is clear that Angelenos deserve a city that delivers for them.

Her campaign is focused on addressing the housing affordability crisis by building more homes, making it easier to produce affordable housing, and ensuring that working families aren’t priced out of the communities they call home.

Los Angeles voters have repeatedly approved funding to address the crisis, and Nithya believes City Hall has a responsibility to ensure those investments produce measurable results—moving more people into permanent housing while making government more transparent and effective.

Throughout her time in office, Nithya has championed a vision of local government that listens to residents, invests in neighborhoods, and makes it easier—not harder—for people to access city services.

Those priorities reflect the values that have always driven Our Revolution: building power from the grassroots, making government accountable to ordinary people, and ensuring public institutions serve the public—not special interests.

At a time when too many politicians accept the status quo, Nithya continues to demonstrate that bold, people-powered leadership can deliver real change.

Our Revolution is proud to endorse Nithya Raman for Mayor of Los Angeles.

Together, we can continue building a government that works for working people, not the powerful—and prove once again that when grassroots movements organize, we win.

Connie Chan for Congress in CA-11

Connie Chan for Congress in CA-11

 

For too long, Washington has put the interests of wealthy corporations and well-connected insiders ahead of working people.

That’s why Our Revolution is proud to endorse Connie Chan for Congress in California’s 11th District.

Connie has built her career fighting for working families, affordable housing, strong public schools, neighborhood businesses, and immigrants. Throughout her time in public service, she has remained focused on making government work for everyday people—not the wealthy and well-connected.

As a San Francisco Supervisor, Connie has been a consistent advocate for working people, fighting to keep families in their neighborhoods, protect public services, and invest in affordable housing. Her campaign for Congress is built on the belief that every family deserves economic security, safe communities, and a government willing to take on the affordability crisis.

Connie knows firsthand the opportunities America can provide and has spent her life giving back to the community that welcomed her, her mother, and brother when they immigrated from Hong Kong in 1989.

Her campaign is rooted in ensuring that every child, worker, senior, and immigrant has the opportunity to succeed. She believes Congress must lower costs for families, expand affordable housing, protect Social Security and Medicare, strengthen public education, and defend immigrant communities.

Connie is also committed to making housing more affordable by securing federal investment to build more housing. She argues that relying solely on the private market has failed to address the housing crisis and believes government must play a stronger role in ensuring everyone has access to an affordable place to live.

Connie has made clear that democracy works best when elected leaders remain accountable to the people they serve. Her campaign is powered by neighbors, volunteers, labor allies, and community members who believe Congress should answer to working families—not corporate interests.

Connie represents the next generation of progressive leadership—grounded in community, committed to public service, and ready to fight for the people of California’s 11th District every single day.

We’re proud to endorse Connie Chan for Congress.

Together, we can continue building a Congress that puts people before profits, expands opportunity for working families, and delivers the bold progressive leadership this moment demands.

When we organize, we win.

Ed Markey for Re-Election to the US Senate

By ALL, Endorsement, MA

Ed Markey for Re-Election to the US Senate

 

Ed Markey is a national leader on energy, environmental protection and telecommunications policy, demonstrating his deep commitment to improving the lives of the people of Massachusetts and our country.

That’s why Our Revolution wants to send Ed back to the US Senate to continue serving alongside Bernie Sanders to defend our democracy and fight for working families.

Whether the issue is climate change, clean energy, safeguarding privacy, nuclear non-proliferation, investor protection, or preserving an open Internet that spurs competition and consumer choice, Ed defends our progressive values and holds the powerful elites accountable.

Experience Matters

Elected to the Senate after a lengthy and distinguished career in the US House, Ed brings his energy and experience to fight for the people of Massachusetts.

In the House and Senate, Ed has: 

  • Co-sponsored the Medicare for All Act in the Senate
  • Co-authored the landmark Waxman-Markey bill
  • Lead the call to investigate the disastrous BP oil spill
  • Been instrumental in breaking up telecommunications monopolies
  • Introduced the Internet Freedom Preservation Act
  • Authored of some of the most important Wall Street reform laws since the Great Depression

At a time when many corporate Democrats are openly declaring war on progressives, Ed is committed to a Democratic Party that addresses climate change and preserves our environment, defends the rights of consumers while expanding opportunity, and advocating for a national single-payer healthcare system that guarantees comprehensive, affordable care to every American.

The Stakes in This Race

Massachusetts is facing critical challenges that demand bold and trusted leadership.

Throughout his tenure in Congress, Ed has focused on confronting the climate crisis, lowering the cost of housing and utilities, expanding access to healthcare, and protecting our communities. 

Ed has secured hundreds of millions in direct federal investments to protect and support communities across Massachusetts— from Boston to Worcester to Springfield to the Cape and Islands. Through congressionally directed spending and key infrastructure legislation, he delivers vital resources directly to the Commonwealth’s municipalities.

Ed has delivered for his community, but this race is about so much more than that.

It’s about whether the Democratic Party will continue moving toward a bold, unapologetically progressive vision that takes on concentrated wealth and corporate power — or will the elites and corporate apologists drag our party back toward the policies that have failed working people for decades.

Ed Markey has taken a stand.

And Our Revolution is proud to stand with him.

When we organize, we win.

Ro Khanna for Re-Election to Congress

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.
