Jason, if you’ve been looking for the most strategic donation you can make during the 2026 midterm elections, this is it. Here’s why your $7 goes furthest when you donate to the DNC: We are the only committee focused on electing Democrats at every single level of government. That includes candidates for your local school board, Democrats running in New Jersey, and beyond. It’s our job to send money to races that need that funding the most. And there’s more: Across the country, we’re working hard to reach Democrats who don't vote in every election — voters who will help us win if they show up at the polls in November. Think about your friends or relatives who are Democrats but who don't always vote. There are millions of people like them across the country, and traditionally, getting them to show up in a midterm year is even tougher. If we can mobilize them to vote in November’s elections, we can win the midterms. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly. If we reach our fundraising goal, we’ll have the resources to scale up all of this work. Coming up short could mean making tough budget decisions about where to allocate our resources, and Democratic candidates could pay the price. That’s why your support makes such a big difference. Thank you in advance for your help, The Democrats  If you gave recently via check or mail, our system may not have yet processed your gift. We are appreciative and thank you greatly for your support. Jason, we’re building the largest midterm operation in DNC history to take back control of Congress this November, but we need your help right now. Your donation today will help fund our work to register new Democrats in battleground states, organize everywhere, and win everywhere. Text JOIN to 43367 Want to receive fewer emails? Click here.

the most strategic donation you can make →
I tell this story not because it is special, but because of how common it is.
I grew up in a working-class family.
My mom cleaned houses and my dad worked to build a small business. They worked themselves to the bone so that my brother and I could have a shot at making it.
And for a moment there, it looked like everything was on track: we had a home, bills were a little less stressful to pay, and I was doing well in school. What may have looked like a modest life to others was a dream come true for us.
But out of nowhere, when I was a teenager, my dad was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer. He passed away in September of 2008, just as the economy crashed thanks to the greed of Wall Street and millions of jobs across this country vanished.
It felt like the world of our family fell apart as the larger world was falling apart, too.
Overnight, my mom was left to figure out how to provide for two kids by herself, keep our house, pay off my dad's medical bills — all on a house cleaner's salary.
I tell this story not because it is special, but because of how common it is.
While the details may differ, so many of us know what it feels like to be one bad day, one piece of bad news, one small setback from everything falling apart.
But we don't have to live like this in the richest country on earth.
We can build a new world, a better future, where we guarantee the dignity of all of our people.
That future looks like living wages.
It looks like stable housing.
It looks like Medicare for All.
And it looks like respect for all of our differences, no matter who we are or where we come from.
Right now, we must out-organize the oligarchy and we cannot beat them if we take their money.
That is why, even as a waitress with a long-shot campaign, I decided that I would never take money from lobbyists or corporations — and I never will.
In solidarity,
Alexandria

My question for you
|

Jason, Ken Martin here. I’ve spent my career organizing on the ground and talking to voters every day. I learned from experience that winning strategies are the ones guided by regular people, not pundits. Even as DNC Chair, it’s incredibly important to me to hear from people who are doing the work — making calls, knocking on doors, and registering voters. That’s why I’ve had my team gather our most dedicated grassroots supporters from New Jersey. Jason, you’re one of those New Jersey Democrats. Winning control of the House and Senate depends on knowing which issues matter most to this team, so I hope you’ll take a minute to join my focus group and answer a few questions to help guide our midterm strategy Trump’s chaos, his tariffs, and his war of choice with Iran have been wreaking havoc on American families. I want you to know that my team and I think every day about what the cost of this presidency has been to the American people. Our best shot at stopping him is by electing Democratic majorities who will put a real check on his power. So please, take a minute to fill out this survey and help us cross the finish line to victory this November. Your input is invaluable to this team. Thank you, Ken Martin  If you gave recently via check or mail, our system may not have yet processed your gift. We are appreciative and thank you greatly for your support.

$9

Jason, We’re about to ask you to chip in $9 to the DNC today. Here’s why: Election Day is just 9 weeks away. That means we have just 9 weeks left to finish the work we need to do to elect Democrats everywhere this year. 9 weeks to make calls, knock doors, and send texts to ensure every Democrat has a plan to vote. 9 weeks to register even more young Democrats to vote in battleground states like Arizona and Nevada. 9 weeks to equip 10,000 candidates with the resources to fight and win up and down the ballot. It might not seem like $9 can do all of that. But Jason, there are over 1 MILLION grassroots supporters in our movement. When all of us stand together, we have the power to create massive change. Every donation we receive represents another member of our people-powered movement standing up and fighting back against Donald Trump’s agenda. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly: Thank you, The Democrats P.S. With just 9 weeks to go, we need a massive influx of resources to scale up our work across the country. Will you make your contribution weekly until Election Day?  If you gave recently via check or mail, our system may not have yet processed your gift. We are appreciative and thank you greatly for your support.

Hey Jason, On behalf of everyone at the DNC and the 10,000 Democratic candidates who rely on this organization, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for sticking with us and doing what you can to support our people-powered movement in August. We SUED the Trump administration to stop their attack on vote-by-mail, thanks to you. We launched a new ORGANIZING program to register young people to vote, thanks to you. All in just the past week. When I say that this team shapes election-winning budget decisions, this is exactly what I mean. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly. If you want us to help Democrats keep suing, organizing, and winning, then I’m counting on you to chip in. 99.7% of the DNC’s donations come from this team, and there is not a moment to waste. Thank you for everything. SimĆ³n  If you gave recently via check or mail, our system may not have yet processed your gift. We are appreciative and thank you greatly for your support.

As the school year starts, will you donate to Learn To Be?
Students across the country are going back to school to start another academic year of learning and growing. š✏️
We believe that every student should start the year off with their head held high which is why we organize a yearly backpack drive to distribute backpacks and supplies to students in New York City.
But once school starts, we know many students might struggle to complete homework or access tutoring services.
We believe that money shouldn’t dictate access to education — all students deserve the resources to succeed.
You may remember that our campaign launched a virtual tutoring program in 2020 called Homework Helpers to assist families with the demands of online learning during the pandemic. We were able to provide families across New York City with over 8,000 hours of virtual homework assistance.
In the Summer of 2023, we decided to transition the program to the educational non-profit Learn To Be, which has been providing free virtual tutoring to students across the country since 2008.
100% of your donation will go to Learn To Be.
Here are just a few testimonials from parents and tutors about Learn To Be’s positive impact:
“I love Learn To Be because it provides wonderful academic support for my children. The platform is very easy to use, and we are so grateful for the amazing volunteer tutors who give their time to help our kids learn and succeed. Thank you for this wonderful program!”
“Alice is an amazing reading tutor! She is highly dedicated and prepares her own custom slide presentations and special learning materials for my daughter. The lessons are incredibly lively, dynamic, and always full of great energy. She keeps my daughter fully engaged throughout the entire session. We are very grateful for her effort!”
“It has been a wonderful experience working with Learn To Be, and I’m thankful for the opportunity to support students through the program.”
“I love seeing the smile on my students' faces when they understand something new I teach them.”
Every $5 donation funds one full hour of tutoring and pays for the technology platform, tutor training, student matching, and ongoing support that makes Learn To Be’s tutoring possible.
A $25 donation today would cover 5 hours of one-on-one tutoring! Can you pitch in today?
We’ve seen this movement step up to achieve incredible things before. Together we’ve raised millions for mutual aid groups, relief programs, and more.
Whether or not you can contribute today, thank you for standing with us.
In solidarity,
Team AOC
