Saving our democracy starts at home.

I'm Derek Marshall, Executive Director of the Local Democracy Project, and I'm reaching out to you during a critical moment for our democracy. For generations, Republicans have invested heavily in local and municipal races, capturing city councils, school boards, judges, and mayoral offices. This strategy has paved the way for their dominance at state and federal levels, and as a result essential institutions are under attack and working families are facing unprecedented economic hardships. Families can't afford housing, and healthcare costs are skyrocketing. It's time we counteract this with a robust, local-focused movement. We must act now to reclaim our communities and ensure our leaders represent the needs of the people. Let's take our communities back, block by block, seat by seat.

As a congressional candidate and political organizer, I've organized at the local and federal levels, contributing to significant victories like Bernie Sanders' Nevada win, and I'm committed to the issues that matter: Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, and local job creation. Here at Local Democracy Project, we are dedicated to building a comprehensive down-ballot strategy that empowers local candidates and grassroots organizations so we can rebuild our democracy. We're committed to restoring democracy and lifting up the voices of working-class Americans. We're targeting 100 crucial local races and aim to raise $770,000 to fund these campaigns immediately. We need your help to build the infrastructure needed to strengthen local power, engage communities, and drive lasting change. Will you pitch in?
