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?

Gov. Youngkin Vetoes Protections for Contraception and Birth Control, Leaving Door Open for Sears to Attack Reproductive Freedom

DGA National Press Secretary Devon Cruz released the following statement on Gov. Glenn Youngkin vetoing a bill, which he previously gutted, that would guarantee access to contraception and birth control in Virginia:

“Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s decision to block protections for contraception today is dangerous and exactly why Virginia needs to reject Winsome Earle-Sears in November. She voted against this bill earlier this year and continues to run on her far-right agenda to ban abortion and restrict reproductive rights. Sears should stop hiding and explain to Virginians why she wants to attack reproductive freedom and make it harder for women in Virginia to get the health care they need.”
