We are not a nation of kings. We are a democracy. But democracy doesn’t protect itself–we have to protect it. Thank you to the National Democracy Summer School fellows who joined me yesterday to talk about how to get involved and stand up for our democracy.


Today we’re thrilled to feature one of our wonderful Midwest partner campaigns: Betty McCollum for Congress in #MN04! McCollum Fellows have been hard at work marching in parades, getting hands-on experience in field operations, and connecting with voters in every corner of the district.


It’s an honor to have Eugene Vindman joining us this year as a Democracy Summer partner campaign! Fellows in VA-07 are making lifelong friendships while organizing for strong democracy, freedom and progress. We couldn't be prouder of their achievements!



“I want to make sure that everyone has access to live with as much dignity as possible… That really is the North Star." 🌟 Thx to Brian Tyler Cohen for speaking to our Fellows about finding purpose in political engagement and using digital media to promote democratic progress.



So delighted to have the great Lizzie Pannill Fletcher as a returning partner in our Democracy Summer program! Our talented and dedicated Fellows in TX-07 are changing the shape of politics today and organizing for a brighter future.


Democracy Summer Fellows with Ilhan Omar are spending their summer marching in parades, learning from Democratic leaders, and connecting with voters in every corner of MN-05 to energize voters and listen to their priorities. Go team!


So great to see Greg Stanton meeting with his amazing Democracy Summer Fellows in AZ-04. These young leaders are working around the clock to build a big blue wave in Arizona before next year's critical midterm elections. Stanton Fellows rock! 🎉




Excited to feature one of our amazing campaigns from the Golden State - Scott Peters in California’s beautiful 50th District! ☀️ CA-50 Fellows are hard at work building pro-democracy coalitions and organizing for bold, progressive change.


On Friday, Jamie Raskin Fellows had an amazing time at the Voters of Tomorrow Fighting for Our Future Summit, where they heard from exciting guest speakers and connected with youth advocates from around the country! Gen Z continues to be an unstoppable force for change in America.


We are so fortunate to have Brad Schneider returning year after year as a Democracy Summer partner campaign! IL-10 Fellows are fiercely devoted to showing up in their communities and organizing for lasting change. We salute all their hard work this summer!


We appreciate you joining us, Hillary Scholten! As we prepare for next year’s midterm elections, your advice about how to organize in swing districts across America couldn’t come at a more critical time. Thank you for sharing your expertise with our Fellows!

What a privilege it is to have a strong Democracy Summer presence in critical swing states like Pennsylvania! Thanks to Madeleine Dean for being a longstanding partner and mobilizing Fellows all across PA-04 to organize for Democrats up and down the ballot.




150 Democracy Summer Fellows and true-blue fighters from MD-8 joined 200 people in PA-10 as we canvassed and rallied the troops in York for Janelle Stelson for Congress. She came within one point last year and she’s going all the way in 2026. Others gerrymander but we organize!


Our Yassamin Ansari Fellows are shining brighter than the Arizona sun this summer! Their passionate activism and diligent organizing work are moving our country forward and energizing voters all across AZ-03. ☀️ We couldn't be prouder!
