Chip in today to elect Dem govs across the country >>
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?
Republican-Led States Only States to Lose Jobs
What do Maine, Wisconsin, and Wyoming all have in common? They are the only states to have negative job growth in the last year–according to a new report by the Pew Charitable Trusts–and they’re all governed by Republicans. With Republican governors like Maine Gov. Paul LePage threatening to shut down his state if he doesn’t get tax cuts for the wealthy and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker focusing his attention on an intrusive forced ultrasounds bill, it’s no wonder these states are underperforming their peers. While Democratic governors are focusing on job growth, it seems that Republicans just haven’t gotten the memo.
