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 this 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 Republicans’ Government Shut Down
Today, DGA Chair Kansas Governor Laura Kelly released the following statement on Republicans’ decision to shut down the government rather than bring down health care costs:
“Last night, President Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress chose to shut down the government and force millions of Americans off their health insurance instead of working across the aisle to lower costs and protect health care. Today, families across the country, including over 200,000 Kansans who get their health care through the Affordable Care Act, are waking up and being forced to deal with the consequences of these partisan games. What’s worse is that it is all preventable.
“Republicans in Washington have created a health care crisis that is ripping away health care from millions of Americans while jacking up costs and forcing rural hospitals to close their doors, and now they’ve shut down the government instead of working to fix it. My message to Congressional Republicans is simple: stop the nonsense and work to protect the people you serve.”
