The Importance of Primaries
Electing people to Congress who will stand up for working people rather than billionaires begins in the primaries. If we want real change we must support grassroots candidates who do not accept corporate money. Grassroots candidates need small donations, phonebankers and canvassers to get them across the finish line. Find a few candidates you like and help them out. The candidates below are endorsed by Indivisible, but there are many other great candidates out there.
