@noondlyt Honestly, Millennials and Xers need to step up and #runforsomething.

#RunForSomething is one of my favorite progressive organizations.

They help young progressives run for office and get elected. It results in real change.

They recently held an event in their “Unapologetically Progressive” series and it was standing room only in Arkansas. And they’re bringing this series to other states soon.

Looking for a great way to get involved? Here it is.

Unapologetically Progressive - Run For Something-

Are you a young, progressive person interested in running for office? Are you a person looking to support young progressive people running for office?

Check out #RunforSomething. It’s a great resource for people looking to get elected and a great resource to find candidates to support. They’re running in places that are often skipped and field excellent candidates.

"For many politicos, it will be tempting to focus exclusively on the battleground states relevant to the electoral college leading up to the 2024 presidential election — but winning the White House, while necessary, simply isn’t enough if we want to make life meaningfully better for people. We have to also win school boards, city councils, state legislatures, and all other types of local seats."

Over half of all #SouthCarolina House races went unchallenged in 2022.

This cannot stand. We need YOU to take a chance and make sure all incumbents are forced to earn their seats, and who knows - perhaps lose them to YOU!

How wonderful it is to see 2 strong women....the Vice President of the United States and the greatest Speaker of the House in history--behind President Zelinsky in our Congress during this speech! We need more women in government! #RunForSomething

@Jeremymatlow is spot-on with his analysis. At last week’s swearing-in ceremony I was thinking about how its only been a year since that meeting. Many officials are happy to talk about serving in office, and I was able to take something from each person I talked with.
Let this election year be a signal to anyone ready to #runforsomething and make a difference. #tallahassee

2022 elections are [mostly] over.
Now: Grand Rapids, MI gets to elect a new mayor in 2024!
I know some of you are qualified; I want someone I want to canvas for, I want to have to buy a new pair of shoes. 👞 #GrandRapidsMI #GrandRapids #RunForSomething

@PDelahanty Those positions are some of the most important positions in local governments and so, so often they go unopposed. And they manage budgets for whole schools which are often the biggest employers in a city. All this to say, better to leave blank than to vote for a crazy person. And also #runforsomething
