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 Vicki Schmidt Running for Governor in Kansas
DGA spokesperson Johanna Warshaw released the following statement in response to Vicki Schmidt running for governor in Kansas:
“Vicki Schmidt’s entrance into the Kansas governor’s race throws the already messy and crowded GOP primary into extreme chaos – and Republicans are wasting no time attacking each other over who is more out of step with Kansas families. Schmidt brings to this race a disastrous and disqualifying record of voting to enact Sam Brownback’s failed tax experiment that left schools underfunded, gutted infrastructure funding, created a major budget crisis, and drove Kansas’ economy into the ground.
“On the other hand, Governor Laura Kelly has shown Kansans what steady, middle-of-the-road leadership looks like. Governor Kelly balanced the budget, brought record economic investment to Kansas, and finally eliminated the food tax. That’s exactly the type of leadership Kansans will want to stick with, no matter who enters the race.”
