Our answer to the NRA

Mark my words: Gen Z will outlive the NRA. The Daily Beast recently analyzed the NRA’s tax returns. They aren’t pretty. In fact, the pro-gun group’s revenue has been on the decline for years now, especially since Parkland. Last year, their fundraising was at its lowest point since 2008. And since 2018 they have lost over 1 million members. I firmly believe that the NRA’s days are numbered—and as their power and influence fade into the dustbin of history, we will replace their corrupt, purchased politicians with a new generation of bold, courageous leaders who aren’t afraid to take urgent, necessary action to stop the scourge of gun violence in America. I co-founded Leaders We Deserve because Gen Z’s answer to the NRA is electing more and more young people to public office to counter their agenda. With so much riding on the upcoming elections, we’re preparing now so we can elect the leaders we deserve in November. [Will you split a $20 contribution to support Leaders We Deserve and Democracy Defense Action today?]( We founded Leaders We Deserve last year to elect the next generation of leadership—and folks across the country are already helping us shatter expectations. Not only have tens of thousands of people just like you joined our movement and helped spread the word about our mission, we’ve already elected our very first candidate. In the days leading up to the November election, we hit the streets in Virginia to knock on doors and get out the vote for Nadarius Clark. Thanks to our supporters’ donations, we were proud to invest more than $100,000 to support Nadarius’s campaign. When all the ballots were counted, Nadarius won by less than 2,000 votes. Leaders We Deserve is already playing an integral role in electing the next generation of leaders and we’re counting on your continued support so we can keep winning these fights in 2024. There is too much on the line for us to lose. [Leaders We Deserve and Democracy Defense Action can only be successful in November with your continued support, so can you split a $20 contribution or whatever makes sense for you today? Anything you can give will make a difference.]( Thank you for your consideration, David Hogg Co-founder, Leaders We Deserve Paid for by Democracy Defense Action. DemocracyDefenseAction.com.
