Red alert for Oregon

We've got a red alert happening right here in Oregon.

Here's what you need to know:

  • In 2020, our friend Rep. Peter DeFazio faced the toughest race of his career — and it became the most expensive congressional race in Oregon history.

  • On Sunday, his opponent — Trump ally Alek Skarlatos — announced on Fox & Friends that he's jumping back into the race to take on Peter again.

  • GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy bragged that in 2022 "you're going to see things in Oregon", meaning big right-wing and corporate investments to win seats in Oregon.

  • The Cook Political Report recently declared that DeFazio's seat is now an R+1 seat, meaning he's one of very few Democrats in a Republican-leaning district.

  • Peter is a progressive champion, leading the fight in the House of Representatives to pass the American Jobs Plan for infrastructure — including big investments to tackle climate change.

I'm asking you, to chip in $12 right now to support Peter DeFazio. We have to have his back. It matters to Oregonians — and it matters to everyone across the country.

We can't let Kevin McCarthy and his corporate allies take down Peter. We just can't. Donate now

Onward!
