John, across the country — from Arizona to Kentucky — families are facing the same impossible reality:

Cuts to Medicaid, SNAP benefits, and veterans’ services are hurting the very people Congress should be fighting for. Parents can’t afford groceries. Seniors are skipping needed medical care. Veterans are being pushed out of the systems that were supposed to support them.

That’s why Jo Mendoza and Cherlynn Stevenson are stepping up.

They’re both running in tough 6th Congressional Districts. They’ve both been recognized by EMILY’s List as leaders ready to make history. And they’re both fighting for the same thing: a Congress that finally puts working families first.

But here’s the truth: If we want to flip these seats and protect the programs our communities rely on, we need to build the kind of grassroots strength that can stand up to extremist attacks — and win.

Jo and Cherlynn don’t take corporate PAC money -- they’re powered entirely by people like you.

So today, we’re asking you to split a contribution between these two fighters who are carrying their communities’ hopes with them every single day: Chip in $25, $50, or whatever you can to help Jo Mendoza and Cherlynn Stevenson win these races — and defend the families Washington keeps forgetting.

Every dollar you give helps them knock more doors, reach more voters, and build the momentum it will take to flip two of the most competitive seats in the country.

Families in Arizona and Kentucky are counting on leaders who understand what’s at stake. Leaders who will protect Medicaid, SNAP, and veteran services, not gut them.

That’s exactly the kind of leadership Jo and Cherlynn bring.

Thank you for standing with them in this fight.

— Team Mendoza & Team Stevenson
