Long before I ran for Congress, I had the opportunity to serve as policy director for Barack Obama’s 2004 campaign for the United States Senate.
That campaign taught me something I have carried with me ever since:
Winning takes more than a good candidate.
It takes a clear message. A strong organization. The resources to compete. And people willing to believe in a campaign before everyone else catches on.
Since then, I have gone on to win five elections of my own and help build coalitions around some of the toughest challenges facing working families.
But I also saw the same problem over and over again.
Too many talented leaders never get the early support they need. Too many important causes struggle for resources while Republicans and their billionaire donors build political infrastructure years in advance.
That is why I founded Equal Opportunity Now.
We are building an organization that can identify bold leaders, invest in them early, and support the causes that will expand opportunity, stand up to Donald Trump’s MAGA agenda, and deliver real results for working families.
Will you chip in $25, $50, or whatever you can today to help us build the next generation of winning leaders?
