Democratic governors are leading the fight against Donald Trump and his administration – and they need your help. Trump and his allies have hundreds of millions of dollars to attack our candidates, and we have to make sure we’ve got the resources to fight back. With 36 races on the map this November, 80% of Americans will cast their vote for their next governor. We need to invest NOW to expand our map, win in battleground states, protect our blue firewall of Dem govs, and flip critical states from red to blue. Can Dem govs count on you to chip in right now?

DGA Statement on Donald Trump’s Attacks on Public Schools
Today, Democratic Governors Association National Press Secretary Devon Cruz released the following statement after President Donald Trump signed an executive order attacking public schools, and threatening to strip their funding:
“Donald Trump’s attacks on public schools and his threats to rip away their funding are deeply out of step with families across the country and will directly hurt students, parents, teachers, and school support staff.Meanwhile, Democratic governors are actually improving education and making life better for Americans by funding schools, raising teacher pay, expanding literacy and tutoring opportunities, and providing free school meals.That’s been a winning issue for Democratic governors in tough races across the country – from North Carolina and Kentucky to Kansas, Michigan and Wisconsin – and Republicans running for governor will have to answer whether they support these top-down attacks that hurt local schools and try to pit parents against teachers.”
