Chip in today to elect Dem govs >>
Democratic governors are leading in the fight against Donald Trump. With our two historic victories in Virginia and New Jersey, grassroots momentum is on our side! But next year, nearly 80% of the country is voting for a governor – and with Republicans already investing to beat Dem govs, early support has never been so critical. Will you donate to elect more Democratic governors who will defend our rights and freedoms and stand up to Trump?

DGA Chair Laura Kelly Statement on Governor Tony Evers’ Announcement
DGA Chair Governor Laura Kelly released the following statement in response to Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers’ announcement that he will not run for reelection:
“Governor Tony Evers’ leadership has been transformative for Wisconsin. His strong bipartisan record is grounded in the issues that matter most to Wisconsinites, and he has delivered on his promise to make their lives better. At every turn, Governor Evers has shown what is possible when you bring people together to do the right thing for your state. He successfully passed fair electoral maps after years of extreme partisan gerrymandering, challenged Wisconsin’s pre-Civil War abortion ban, funded public schools for the next four hundred years with a stroke of his pen, and cut taxes by over $1.4 billion.
“No matter who emerges from the Republican primary, one thing is certain: they will be too extreme for Wisconsin, in stark contrast with the strong, results-focused leadership in the governor’s office that Wisconsinites have enjoyed over the last six years. The DGA looks forward to protecting Governor Evers’ historic legacy and keeping this office in Democratic hands.”
