Support Tom Suozzi (NY03): Phone bank to replace George Santos with a Democrat!

A Force Multiplier Campaign

Narrow the Republican Majority in the House Today and Build for a Democratic Majority Tomorrow!

Winning the seat recently vacated by George Santos will shrink the Republican majority in the house by one seat, making it even more difficult for them to govern without compromising with the Democrats.

The special election for the seat vacated by George Santos is February 13, 2024.

There is no primary. The Democratic party selected their candidate, Tom Suozzi who is the former incumbent (2016,2018, 2020). Suozzi's background includes being Nassau County Executive and Mayor of Glen Cove. He previously won his House seat by double digits. 

This race is a Toss-Up. The Biden Margin is 8.5.

Pledge to Vote Yes on Question 4: Support Public Safety and Immigrant Driver’s Licenses

Back in June, Massachusetts became the 17th state to pass legislation to allow undocumented immigrants to obtain a driver's license. Just a few short days after the passage of the law, a group formed to challenge the law and place a repeal effort on the November ballot. Now voters all over the state will have to vote YES to uphold the law, or all our efforts will have been in vain.

This law was passed with the support of many police chiefs, a majority of District Attorney and a majority of sheriffs who all know that our roads will be safe if all drivers are tested, licensed and insured. Furthermore If we do not allow our immigrant friends and neighbors in Massachusetts to obtain driver's licenses, we will force immigrants to live their lives haunted by suspicion and danger, in fear of family separation if they are stopped.

Meet Rep. Tim Ryan and Help Expand the Democratic Majority in the US Senate!

A FORCE MULTIPLIER EVENT

Rep. Ryan is a 10 term Congressman running to fill an open seat vacated by Rob Portman (R). His opponent is JD Vance who won a difficult and expensive primary for the Republican nomination aided in part by an endorsement from Donald Trump.

While Ohio is seen as a Red state, Democrat Sherrod Brown has served as one of its Senators since 2007.

Ryan has demonstrated an ability to attract disaffected Republicans and independents. He is consistently out-polling and out-fundraising his opponent and is well-positioned to win this race.

Please join us in supporting Tim and expanding the Democratic Majority in the US Senate.
