In the 2026 primary season, our electoral team hit the ground running to elect progressive champions into the halls of power.
Through sunshine and snow, we went door-to-door every weekend in the south suburbs, canvassing to get State Senator and our former Political Director, Robert Peters, to Congress, along with Wesam Shahed for Cook County Commissioner.
Together, we’ve reached out to over 30,000 voters and held countless conversations with our neighbors about how we can get progressive champions like these into the halls of power.
Thank you to our sponsors, who made our electoral work possible this year!
