I know firsthand how important state legislatures are and the impact they have on our democracy. In many ways, the folks who represent you at the state and local level have more of an impact on your life than the ones you send to Washington. Hundreds of competitive state legislative seats are up for grabs – and it will take all of us coming together to make sure Democratic state legislators can keep this country moving forward.’ – Barack Obama ]( In a moment, we’re going to explain our plan to support and elect hundreds of pro-choice, pro-climate, pro-gun safety Democratic scientists to office at the state and local level: [But before that, can we count on you to join Obama in the fight to support state legislative and local Democrats in critical key races?]( [COUNT ME IN »]( A few weeks ago, we reached out to you about how we were supporting more than 100 pro-choice women with STEM backgrounds at the state and local level, nearly one-third of which are women in medicine like doctors, nurses, and pediatricians! We’re proud to announce we’ve endorsed nearly 50 more Democratic scientists running at the state and local level, bringing us to nearly 200 total with dozens more to come in the next few weeks. [And we’re going to be making a historic investment to get them elected (in addition to the support we’ve been providing many of them over the past year!).]( Democrats are 2 seats shy of flipping control of the Arizona State Senate and the Arizona State House. We’re 3 seats away from flipping control of the Minnesota State Senate and the Michigan State House. But Republicans only need to win a handful of seats to flip the Democratic-held Maine State Senate, Colorado State Senate, Nevada State Senate, and Oregon State Senate and so many more chambers. [Few national organizations get involved at the state and local level like we do. And many of these races will be decided by investments that are the equivalent of 1/10th of a single race for Congress or even 1/100th of a single Senate race.]( [Obama is calling us all to action: Our work is 100% powered by individual donations. That’s why we’re asking – if you are in a position to – to donate with the election 100 days out so we can support HUNDREDS of pro-science, pro-choice, pro-climate, pro-gun safety Democratic scientists in virtually every state.]( If you’ve stored your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will be processed immediately.

To date, we've flipped five U.S. Senate seats from red to blue, including drafting both Mark Kelly and John Hickenlooper to run, helped Democrats flip the House in 2018 by electing eight Democrats in red to blue districts, and secured more than six dozen state legislative victories -- All with an average donation of $18. The best way we can build on the progress we've achieved and empower President Joe Biden's science-first agenda is to defend our razor-thin majorities in the House and Senate, which is why we're targeting 68 Senate, House, Gubernatorial and statewide races ahead of 2022. We're creating political consequences for the Republicans who disavow science, deny the reality of climate change, and spread conspiracy theories as a result.
