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

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.

Julie Gonzales for U.S. Senate in Colorado

By ALL, CO, Endorsement

Julie Gonzales for U.S. Senate in Colorado

At a time when working people are demanding bold leadership, Julie Gonzales is stepping up to meet the moment — and Our Revolution is proud to endorse her.

A daughter of the San Carlos Apache Nation and a lifelong organizer, Julie has spent her career fighting for working families and immigrants. From organizing for affordable housing and workers’ rights to serving as a powerful voice in the Colorado State Senate, she has never backed down from the fights that matter most.

Julie Gonzales isn’t just talking about change — she’s delivering it.

In the Colorado Senate, she helped repeal the death penalty, stood strong to protect abortion rights after Roe was overturned, and has led efforts to expand protections for immigrant communities. She consistently champions policies that put people over profits.

And Julie is bringing that same unapologetic progressive vision to her campaign for U.S. Senate. She is running on a bold agenda that includes:

  • Medicare for All and universal care
  • Raising the minimum wage and strengthening labor rights
  • Universal childcare and affordable housing
  • A ban on congressional stock trading
  • Protecting reproductive freedom and gender-affirming care
  • A humane immigration system that defends our communities 

Julie has never been afraid to challenge the status quo — even when it means taking on powerful interests within her own party. Her campaign is rooted in grassroots organizing and driven by the belief that our government should work for all of us, not just the wealthy and well-connected.

That’s why national progressive leaders and grassroots activists are rallying behind her candidacy. Because Julie Gonzales represents the future of the Democratic Party: bold, fearless, and accountable to the people.

At Our Revolution, we know real change doesn’t come from the top down — it comes from movements. Julie Gonzales is that movement candidate.

We’re proud to stand with her in this fight — and we’re ready to help send a true progressive champion to the United States Senate.

Matt Dunlap for Congress (ME-02)

By ALL, Endorsement, ME

Matt Dunlap for Congress (ME-02)

Our Revolution is proud to endorse Matt Dunlap for Congress in Maine’s 2nd District — a longtime public servant, democracy defender, and progressive leader ready to stand up for working people.

Matt Dunlap has spent decades serving the people of Maine with integrity and independence. From his time in the Maine House of Representatives to seven terms as Secretary of State, and now as State Auditor, he has built a reputation for accountability, transparency, and putting the public interest first. 

But what truly sets Matt apart is his willingness to stand up to power — no matter where it comes from. During the Trump administration, he served on the so-called “election integrity” commission and took it head-on when it became clear it was a partisan effort to undermine voting rights, ultimately helping expose it and force its dissolution. 

Matt has deep roots in the progressive movement. He served as a Maine co-chair for Bernie Sanders’ 2016 campaign, helping build the grassroots energy that continues to power our movement today. He understands that real change comes from organized people — not corporate influence.

Now, he’s running for Congress with a commitment to a “People’s Agenda” that centers working-class needs, challenges corporate power, and pushes back against politicians who side with Republicans and fail to deliver for their constituents. 

At a time when too many Democrats hedge or compromise with corporate interests, Matt is running to be a clear, unapologetic voice for economic justice, voting rights, and a government that works for the many — not the few.

Maine’s 2nd District deserves a representative who will fight for healthcare, defend our democracy, and stand up to Trump and corporate power without hesitation. Matt Dunlap has the experience, the courage, and the movement behind him to do just that.

HEADLINES: Stop Trump’s War | Merkley, Khanna weigh in | Primaries Underway! | Dark Money Fight | Exciting New Endorsements | New Merch | & MORE!

★ ★ ★


Trump’s War Is a Wake-Up Call. Trump has dragged us into a catastrophic conflict — lives lost, costs rising, and now he’s pushing billions in cuts at home to pay for more bombs abroad.

This is exactly why we must take back Congress and elect leaders who will stand for peace and invest in our communities — not endless war and destruction.

On Monday, nearly 100,000 people tuned in to Our Revolution’s LIVE National Organizing Call to hear how we fight back — in the streets, in Congress, and at the ballot box.

Senator Jeff Merkley laid it out clearly: “The Constitution gives Congress the power of the purse and the power to declare war — and those powers are being ignored, with devastating consequences.”

Sen. Merkley is standing up to unchecked executive power and fighting to end these disastrous wars — and we’re proudly supporting him for re-election.

Rep. Ro Khanna connected the dots between war, corruption, and economic injustice: “This same elites send us to wars that don’t benefit the American people while they rig the economy and enrich themselves. They think they’re above the law — and people are fed up.”

Ro is leading a push for Senate Democrats to reject any Trump nominees for Attorney General unless they commit to full transparency in the Epstein case and prosecutions. Sign the petition here.

We need more fighters like Merkley and Khanna in Congress — and five bold, people-powered candidates joined the call ready to take up that fight.

Donate now to power our grassroots organizing and elect working-class to win the primaries this spring and beat MAGA in November.

ALL IN ON THE PRIMARIES!

Democratic primaries are happening right now, and our movement is mobilizing. No Kings showed we can million in the streets — now we need to get millions out to the polls.

We have a real shot to take back the House AND the Senate in November and block the worst of Trump during his final years in office — but we have to dig into the groundwork NOW.

And that’s exactly why Our Revolution is ramping up our voter turnout operation across the country — we’re calling, texting, and doorknocking our neighbors. Because every victory starts with grassroots power.

On Monday’s call, Wala Blegay made it clear what kind of campaign she’s running: “I took the People’s Pledge so folks know I’m serious — no corporate money, no special interest money. And I’m challenging my opponents to do the same.”

Wala is running in Maryland’s 5th District to bring bold, people-powered leadership to a seat long held by establishment insider Steny Hoyer.

A labor rights attorney, Prince George’s County Council Member, and former Bernie delegate in 2016, she has spent her career fighting for workers, expanding opportunity, and delivering for her community.

Educator, nonprofit leader, and now our endorsed candidate for Congress in CA-01, Audrey Denney spoke to the urgency facing communities in rural California:

“Hospital closures and wildfires are already hitting families hard. We need bold solutions like Medicare for All — and leaders who fight for people, not corporations,” she said Monday.

Audrey is running to bring real representation to a region that has been long overlooked — where parts of the district were held by Republicans for 50 years. From food security to strengthening local economies, Audrey has built a reputation for putting people first.

Running for Congress in a longtime working class district in Ohio that has recently gone red, Brian Poindexter spoke to what unites us.

“I don’t care if you shower before work or after work — we all have to work for a living. Voters just want someone who’s going to fight for them and for working people.”

A union ironworker and city councilman, Brian’s message cuts through the noise: fair wages, affordable healthcare, and a secure retirement — the “holy trinity” of economic justice that resonates with voters across party lines.

We’ve got a movement to build and an election to win. Donate today to elect working-class fighters and stop MAGA.

PA ENDORSEMENTS

In red district in Pennsylvania’s 7th, Bob Brooks’ run for Congress is bringing working-class voters back to the movement. A firefighter and union leader, he’s taking on a broken system that’s left communities behind.

On Monday’s call, he spoke to a major shift happening on the ground: “It’s one thing to feel left behind — it’s another when people realize they’ve been lied to. They’re angry, and they’re starting to come back because they want someone who will actually fight for them.”

From rising costs to endless war to corruption and Epstein cover-ups, Bob is speaking directly to the frustration people feel — and offering a real alternative grounded in progressive values and working-class solidarity.

★ ★ ★

Our candidate for Congress in PA-03, Chris Rabb, didn’t hold back: “In the bluest district in the country, we should have a true progressive fighting for Medicare for All and union rights — not another status quo politician.”

Chris is a longtime state rep and community leader, and he’s making it clear, “any blue will do” isn’t good enough when working people are still being left behind.

For years, Chris has taken on the establishment, introducing bold legislation and refusing corporate PAC money. Now, in an open-seat race, he’s the only candidate offering true transformational change — not politics as usual.

★ ★ ★

And, don’t forget about down-ballot races! We’re backing a slate of progressives running for state House and Senate in Pennsylvania — where they can make a real difference in the lives of working people in the Keystone State.

This is a critical election year, and we have a lot of work ahead of us. Donate to make sure we have the resources to get these elect working class fighters and defeat MAGA in the Midterms.

TRANSFORM THE PARTY

As dark money from AIPAC, Crypto, AI and other corporate interests flood the midterms, Our Revolution is pushing the Democratic National Committee to take action.

That’s why we led the charge to pass a DNC resolution to ban dark money in the 2028 presidential primaries. Now, the DNC is in the process of passing a resolution to crack down on dark and corporate money — even covering groups like AIPAC.

But now comes the real test: how it will actually be enforced. As Our Revolution founding chair Larry Cohen told the AP: “It’s necessary that we actually have the party do something on this issue, not just say something.

Democratic Party seats are also up for grabs this year. In Pennsylvania, we’re building progressive power in the party by endorsing these champions as State Committee Members.

They’ve all pledged to use their power to get dark money out. Not only do we have leaders like Larry Cohen carrying the fight as a DNC member, we’re also filling out the ranks of the party.

Lou Hancherick in Butler County; Colleen Ngyugen and John Flood in Cumberland County; Tracy Brown and Kimeka Campbell of Dauphin County; Mario Cimino, Colleen Kennedy, Catherine Coll, and Ashley Dolceamore of Delaware County; Megan Kocher of Luzerne County; Michael Laws of Northampton County; and Jeff Kennedy Faubert of Northumberland County.
