Voters have made it quite clear: they want politicians who fight back against authoritarian overreach, not make excuses for what they can’t do. At the same time, the 2026 midterms mark a record number of incumbents retiring, leaving more open seats than any election recent memory. To meet the moment, we’re backing a record slate of 2026 primary candidates in order to reshape the political landscape.
“For far too long, Democratic leadership has failed to meet the moment; it’s time to clear house,” said Aru Shiney-Ajay. “This is an unprecedented opportunity to elect a new generation of leaders who are challenging our broken political system and fighting for a livable and affordable country.”
