Swing State
Impact: How can you make a bigger impact than a regular donation through Impact Slates? From our results so far, every $1 you donate to our Ad Fund results in $5+ dollars in grassroots donations to key state legislative candidates. That means a $10 donation results in a $50 to candidates, and a $100 donation becomes $500.
We analyzed every tight race and put together slates of candidates who can build the most progressive power for your money.
We partner with ActBlue, which makes it quick and easy to donate in just a click.
We simply take your donation and split it among all candidates in the Impact Slate.
Simply put, we maximize the impact of your donations, both on a national and state level. We literally analyzed how far money goes at each level of government (check out our report). Our analysis identified the top 251 state legislative districts that would bring massive progressive change with much less investment than national races.
Slates give donors superpowers, because they can donate to an expertly-curated group of candidates in one click. We group candidates into slates so you can easily choose the best way to impact the country - whether it be empowering women or expanding healthcare.
After the 2020 census, state legislatures will have incredible power. They have the once-in-a-decade opportunity to draw district maps not only for their own districts, but the U.S. House as well. After 2010, North Carolina redrew their maps and went from a 7-6 Dem majority to a 10-3 GOP advantage. Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania all saw similar GOP power grabs - and the only way to keep them from continuing to trend red is to win & protect fair elections.
Change happens quickly at the state level! After flipping the Virginia state legislature in 2019, the new Democrat majority enacted gun safety measures, expanded the right to vote, and passed the Equal Rights Amendment to become the final state for ratification.
