Our volunteers engage with voters across the US in a shared effort to preserve our democracy. Our goals are to elect Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, hold the Senate, and win the House.

You can make a difference. Volunteering works.
Even if you have never volunteered before, please consider doing so this year. We provide all the tools, training, and guidance you need. We focus on races that are most crucial to achieving our goals. When you and other volunteers engage with voters, they talk to family and friends, creating a ripple effect. Volunteers make a real difference for Democratic candidates at all levels: federal, state, and local.
Come into our office or sign up online today!
