Dorothy pulled back the curtain. So did voters. In Kansas. In Texas — where Democrats won EVERY statewide seat. In 22 states that now have full Democratic control. Sulma Arias on the historic opportunity organizers can't afford to waste: soysulma.substack.com/p/vote…

In 2024, Brad Finstad won southern Minnesota by 17 points. This week, math teacher & union leader Jake Johnson — no corporate money — appears to have beaten him by ~300 votes. Recount ahead. 4,000 deep canvass convos did that. Donate: peoplesaction.org/donate

NC's plan to win governing majorities was for 2030. It happened this week. House majority won. Senate 2 seats from a tie. Alamance County blue for the first time since Carter. A 25-year sheriff in ICE's pocket — gone. Not a blue wave. A people's wave. peoplesaction.org/donate

We won big. Governors, statewide, federal control. Now the hard part: we can't assume Dems will do good things on their own. We have to fight with them — and deliver for working people in the first 100 days, or we're right back to Trump. Fuel the fight: peoplesaction.org/donate

Her daughters knew: their governor took money from their schools and free lunches. This week, they learned he lost. Texas elected its first Latina governor and flipped the state House for the first time in 20+ years. ¡Sí se pudo! ¡No te dejes! Donate: peoplesaction.org/donate

Billionaires tried to repeal WA's new millionaire's tax. The repeal lost. The tax funds free school meals, education & health care — and a local district just added halal lunch options with it. Organizing, delivering. Donate to fuel it: peoplesaction.org/donate
