What's On Our Mind 10-14-2022

A first-generation American, Dr. Yadira Caraveo is running for the newly drawn CO-8 district. This race gives Democrats an excellent chance to pick up a much-needed House seat to protect our narrow majority.
 
Yadira is no stranger to hard work and challenges. She grew up in Colorado after her parents left Mexico in search of a better life for their family. She learned from her family about hard work and sacrifice. Yadira will bring that strong work ethic to Congress.

An army veteran raised by a single mother, Sharice Davids’s life has been shaped by hard work. After working her way through college and law school as a first-generation college student, she went on to serve as a Fellow in President Obama’s White House. In 2019, she was elected to the House of Representatives to represent the third district of Kansas.

Since 2003, Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) has been a champion for JAC’s issues in the United States House of Representatives, both in Ohio’s 13th district and then 17th after the 2010 redistricting process. Now, he’s eyeing a seat in the Senate to represent all of Ohio. Running against him is a conservative commentator and author trying to turn politician. We need to help Rep. Tim Ryan beat MAGA-backed J.D. Vance for Ohio’s Senate seat. Pitch in here

When Rep. Lauren Underwood (D-IL) was elected to Congress in 2018, she became the youngest black woman to serve in either chamber. She has worked hard for our country since day one and we need to keep her in Congress.
 
Donate here to reelect Rep. Underwood. We need to raise $20,000 to help her fend of extreme attacks from the GOP who want her pro-choice seat.

Recent voter trends in Pennsylvania may play a role in the race between JAC candidate Rep. Susan Wild (D-PA) and her opponent for the midterms. Following the overturning of Roe v. Wade, women have been registering to vote in Pennsylvania at record numbers, and are registering as Democrats four-to-one.

Labor Day traditionally begins the start of the official campaign season. As summer ends and students return to school, candidates rev up for their races. It’s an all out sprint to the finish line on November 8th — and you are an important part of that effort.
 
This election is about our democracy and the types of freedom we will have going forward. Each one of us can play a role in helping to protect the things we care about; and none of us can afford to sit this out and let someone else do the work needed to elect our candidates.
 

Candidate Spotlight 8-26-2022

 
Abigail Spanberger (D-VA) has been recognized as the most bipartisan Member of Congress in the Virginia delegation, and the fifth most bipartisan member in both chambers and parties. She has been described by Politico as one of the Democratic party’s “rising stars.”
 

Candidate Spotlight 8-19-2022

Rep. Elaine Luria (D-VA) is one of the most endangered Democrats in the House this cycle because of her devotion to uncovering the truth about the January 6th Capitol attack. Now the GOP extreme right and election-deniers want her seat.
 
With a new Republican-drawn district, Rep. Luria’s seat is in great jeopardy. She narrowly won her race in 2018 by only one point. She is facing an anti-choice, anti-democracy, anti-LGBTQ+ candidate who opposes abortion even in the cases of rape, incest, or life of the mother.
