Our Mission: Rally Democrats to Vote.
DONATE TO BOOST DEMOCRATIC VOTER TURNOUT ➞
The best way to turn out voters is with one-on-one conversations.

Progressive Turnout Project is built around this truth, proven time and time again by researchers — including us. On average, our field work boosts voter turnout by more than 10 percent.

How are we different from everyone else sending you emails?

Our Turnout Teams talk to inconsistent voters who are likely Democrats, so they don’t need persuading on who to vote for. They just need a nudge, some information, and to hear from a real person. That means every eligible non-voter we’re able to reach brings Democrats closer to success on Election Day.

Compared to expensive TV ads, research has proven we have a much larger impact for our investment. Faith, that's why we send you so many emails. The success of our work can make or break an election. And we're entirely funded by grassroots donors.

Lucas Kunce for U.S. Senate

One year ago today, Josh Hawley published his creepy "Manhood" book — trying to convince all of us that the only way to be a man is to be exactly like him.

DEFEAT JOSH HAWLEY

Things aren't much different today…

Lucas Kunce post on X that reads 'You knew this was coming' over a screengrab of a Spectrum News headline that reads 'Hawley defends Chiefs kicker Butker's speech'

DEFEAT JOSH HAWLEY

Missouri is the Show Me State. But the only thing Josh Hawley has shown us is that he's a fraud and a coward who just wants to control us.

This election is our opportunity to defeat him. Hawley won this seat with only 51% of the vote in 2018. After his actions on January 6th, he became the least popular GOP U.S. Senator up for re-election in 2024 — with even lower approvals than Ted Cruz in Texas and Rick Scott in Florida.

But we can't do it without your help. National insiders have injected millions into Hawley's campaign over the last year because they know he's vulnerable to a real warrior for working people like Lucas Kunce. And since we're building a truly grassroots campaign, we're relying on your support to fight back. That's why we're asking:

Will you please chip in $10 or more right now so we can defeat Josh Hawley and elect Lucas Kunce to Missouri's U.S. Senate seat this November? Lucas isn't taking a cent from corporate PACs, so we're counting on your help to expose Hawley's record and get Lucas' message in front of voters.

If you've stored your info with ActBlue Express, we'll process your contribution instantly:

Missourians deserve a U.S. Senator who will actually stand up and look out for them — not a fraud who's obsessed with defining what it means to be a man and controlling people's lives.

Thanks for helping us get it done,

Lucas Kunce HQ

Warren for Senate

Did you see today's breaking news, Faith? The Supreme Court followed the law and upheld the constitutionality of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's funding structure — so the "Little Agency That Could" will live to fight another day.

Look: I'm not surprised that the CFPB faced this attack, which its opponents have been trotting out for years and years and years. When you have an agency that is this good at protecting consumers, then of course a lot of big banks, a lot of payday lenders, and a lot of Republican politicians will go after it and try to shut it down.

We can all let out a sigh of relief that the CFPB overcame this threat — just like we had to overcome armies of Wall Street lobbyists to get it into law in the first place.

But I wanted to share three thoughts on what led to today's ruling and what could come next:

  1. The fact that this particular case — which had no basis in law — made it all the way up to the Supreme Court is a reminder of just how extreme some of our lower federal courts have become.
  2. We're not fooling ourselves: the CFPB's opponents will come back on the attack. After all, this agency has put over $20 billion back in the pockets of seniors, students, service members, veterans, families struggling to make it to the end of the month, and other consumers who got cheated by financial institutions — so those financial institutions have over 20 billion reasons to want to knock it out the game for good.
  3. And there's still a pending case before the Supreme Court that could gut the ability of all federal agencies to do their jobs on behalf of working people.

So we know the threats that we still face. We know that those forces have got plenty of money and power, and that they'll keep fighting. But so will we. And we've got our passion, we've got our determination, and we've got a consumer agency that is still protecting the American people.

We'll keep having the CFPB's back, and we'll stay in this fight. No matter what.

If you're able to make a donation of $28 or any amount right now to help make sure our government works not just for big banks but for all Americans, then please pitch in and help power the fight.

Thanks for being a part of this,

Elizabeth
