We are calling across the country to do our part to flip the House and Senate! Join us in the DPOP office or from home. Sign up here to let us know you're coming! We will have food to munch on while we band together to help Democrats regain control of Congress!

Canvass to Wisconsin

Wisconsin is a critical battleground in the fight to roll back Donald Trump's extreme, authoritarian agenda. There’s a real chance to flip two US House seats AND to keep the 2028 presidential election fair. How? By putting Democrats in control of the Wisconsin state offices, including governor, that can block voter suppression and gerrymandering efforts. But we'll only succeed if we're working together. We'd love you to come knock doors in Wisconsin with us. Sign up here.

Thank you to everyone who came out and made DPOP's Annual Fundraiser PERSIST a huge success!  We were thrilled to welcome U.S. Representative Danny Davis and State Representative La Shawn Ford as well as many other friends at the event!  After such a fun night celebrating Democratic values with good friends and good food, we are ready to get to work on the midterm elections!  Go Dems!
