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 Statement on Ben Salango’s Victory in West Virginia Primary
DGA Chair New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy today issued the following statement on Kanawha County Commissioner Ben Salango’s primary victory in West Virginia:
“Congratulations to Kanawha County Commissioner Ben Salango on his primary victory tonight. Raised in West Virginia, Ben has spent his career focused on creating jobs for his community and protecting the hardworking families of West Virginia. As commissioner, Ben created a small business loan program to help a community facing job losses, led the development of a multimillion-dollar sports complex, secured 12 weeks of paid family leave, and fought for funding for the county’s meal program to ensure no senior citizen would go hungry. Ben has a record of getting things done. As governor, Ben will take on the state’s crumbling infrastructure, invest in public education, protect health care, and address the state’s opioid epidemic. The DGA looks forward to fighting with Ben Salango to help move West Virginia forward.”
