A States Project Giving Circle
About our group
Our States Project Giving Circle — Chop Wood, Carry Statehouses — is raising money for state legislatures in 2026!
We have the opportunity to build more governing power in Minnesota, the power state lawmakers need to protect real people from immediate harm.
As a reminder, these races cost a fraction of a congressional campaign, and what we raise together can meaningfully impact the outcome.
If you want to have a concrete electoral impact ASAP, joining our Giving Circle here is one of the most important and radically pragmatic actions you can take. The Minnesota House tie was held by 8 (!!) votes in 2024, and the single-seat majority in the Senate was won by less than 200 votes. With every legislator we help send to St. Paul, the message is louder and the guardrails are stronger.
Beyond pragmatism, it's important to stay connected over the principles we share. I want to keep working toward a better future together, meaningfully, year after year, with you!
***********
Political giving can be confusing and overwhelming — especially downballot. The States Project zeroes in on the potential tipping point seats in each state where they work, targeting the districts needed to to win governing power with research-based precision. So I've organized a Giving Circle that builds power in the states, where it matters most — here’s why:
If you care about Congress, you should care about state legislatures because they draw the district lines that decide who goes to Congress.
If you care about the Supreme Court, you should care about state legislatures because the Supreme Court doesn’t write laws; they rule on laws! Many of these laws are written by state lawmakers, like the Mississippi abortion ban that took down Roe.
If you care about the Presidency, you should care about state legislatures because they control voting rights in their states (who is eligible to vote, where, when and how).
The States Project works to elect majorities that fight for the issues we care about, including protecting democracy in 2026.
