This is just the beginning. Let's take what we've learned, keep organizing, and keep building.

That hope will carry on far past this election.

Because change doesn't come from a single election. It comes from a movement that refuses to give up. And we're not going anywhere.

For so many, this was your first time getting involved in politics, and let me tell you: you made a difference. You made calls, knocked doors, donated what you could. You believed in something bigger than yourself, you believed change was possible.

We deserve leaders who’ll fight for:

They’re calling me an influencer.

I’m calling it a campaign strategy.

18,000 grassroots donors. 30M views. $600K raised without a single Corporate PAC check.

If this is what the future of politics looks like, I’m proud to be building it.

I looked him in the eye and asked,
“Why would you deny me the American Dream?”

He didn’t have an answer.
So I decided to become one.
