Voters see clearly that many of our politicians are serving their largest corporate donors instead of the working class. Younger voters cannot fathom voting for a status quo that has never served them.
We know that the cards are stacked against younger people, especially younger women, and we want to do everything we can to support them and get money behind them.
And if you really are serious about that, you cannot, in good faith, say that you are neutral if you are supporting those party institutions when they are actively intervening in primaries.
As we saw in Mamdani’s race, and in races with progressive candidates across the country, young voters are turning out in record numbers, proving that we didn’t lose Gen Z; they just needed candidates to vote for.
