John, imagine trying to tell your grandparents they need to stop driving. Painful, right?

Now imagine telling the 83-year-old senator who’s held office since disco was popular that it’s time to pass the torch. That’s not just painful — it’s political suicide in some corners of the party.

But someone has to say it. So I will: We need new leaders. Now.

Run for Something is leading the charge — recruiting, training, and electing diverse, young progressives to public office from corner to corner of the country. But if we’re going to push out the status quo and usher in a new generation of leadership, we need you with us.

We’re raising $10,000 before midnight tonight so that we have what it takes to beef up this pipeline of fresh progressive candidates. Will you help us get there with your donation today?

John, the truth is uncomfortable — but the longer we avoid it, the worse things will get. We don’t have time for another decade of delay. The climate can’t wait. Our democracy can’t wait. Reproductive rights can’t wait.

That’s exactly why we started Run for Something the day Donald Trump was inaugurated the first time. Because while the Republican Party is sprinting toward extremism, Democrats keep clinging to a playbook written by people who still print their emails.

We’re not here to be polite about it. We’re here to build a new bench — from scratch — by helping young, bold progressives run for office before they turn 40. And it’s working.

So far, we’ve helped elect more than 1,500 people across 49 states, and we have over 20,000 in our pipeline ready to run. That’s what Run for Something is all about. And if you want to be part of this generational shift, helping us hit our $10,000 goal is your perfect chance to get involved.

Please, donate to Run for Something now and help us recruit, train, and support the next AOCs, Maxwells, and Parkers before the old guard drives us off a cliff.

Let’s get to work.
