State Legislature

State legislatures increasingly hold the keys to the civil rights of America’s citizens. Voting, reproductive freedoms, economic rights, the right to carry firearms, and other individual rights have more and more been the subject of federal court deference to the states. 

In addition, state legislatures usually create the legislative districts for each state - and when they gerrymander the districts, states can end up with badly skewed legislatures that don't represent the voters' choices.

Electing Democratic majorities in state legislatures protects the rights of the citizenry and prevents Republican gerrymandering.

Downticket Donating

Giving money to local and state candidates can have a MUCH bigger impact than giving to national candidates: candidates for President and Senate get lots of donations and only have so many places to spend it. Local candidates get less money and less attention but can put your dollars to better use.

And your donation to a local candidate can also benefit the national candidates - a Democrat running for the state legislature can boost enthusiasm for Harris and Walz and candidates for Congress while they're campaigning for themselves.

Your downticket donations can multiply the power of your dollars.
