Taking the State Houses before 2020

is more important than taking Congress in 2018.

We can then end gerrymandering and voter suppression, keeping the GOP from control.

State house districts are much smaller and therefore have a better chance at the ground game winning (as we saw in VA last night).

www.dlcc.org is the website to the DLCC (Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee). They help Democrats at the state legislative level. Show your love with a donation to them.
