Tom Steyer for Governor of California
At a critical moment for California, Our Revolution is proud to endorse Tom Steyer for governor.
Tom Steyer has stepped forward with a platform that is clearly aligned with the priorities of our movement — single-payer healthcare, taxing extreme wealth, bold climate action, and getting money out of politics. He didn’t just seek our endorsement — he engaged directly with our organizers and demonstrated a real commitment to a people-first agenda.
As Our Revolution Executive Director Joseph Geevarghese said:
“Tom Steyer understands that California’s affordability crisis is not inevitable — it’s the result of a political system shaped by concentrated wealth and corporate power at the expense of working people. At a moment when too many defend the status quo, Tom has taken a different path — challenging the very system that benefits people like him.”
Yes, Tom Steyer is a billionaire. But it matters what he is doing with that power: pushing for taxes on the wealthy, expanding universal programs, and dismantling corporate influence in our politics.
This is also about winning.
In a high-stakes race where Republicans could take the top spot, consolidating behind a candidate who is both values-aligned and building momentum is essential. Our organizers on the ground in California are seeing real energy around Steyer for Governor — and that grassroots engagement helped drive this decision.
Tom Steyer has spent years investing in climate action, youth organizing, voting rights, and holding polluters accountable. He’s been doing this work long before this campaign — and now he’s stepping up to lead at a moment that demands bold action.
This endorsement is part of a broader strategy to build power in California — a state that can lead the nation on policies like single-payer healthcare, economic justice, and climate action.
As Tom Steyer said:
“Our Revolution has done the hard, essential work of organizing and empowering progressive voters for a decade… I’m honored to receive this endorsement, and as Governor, I’ll work tirelessly to realize our shared vision of a California that works for working people.”
At a moment that demands bold leadership, we are backing the candidate who is stepping up with a clear, people-first agenda.
Tom Steyer is ready to deliver.
