Take Action

STATES MATTER — NOW MORE THAN EVER

Our work is year-round. It requires a thoughtful, sustained effort to become educated, identify priorities, and develop strong relationships with grassroots organizers and national organizations that are on the ground. In 2026 we will continue to work in North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and New Hampshire.

Learn more about Lean Left’s 2026 Strategy and how you can get involved.

Lean Left connects Vermont activists with meaningful ways to protect voters' rights, engage and educate voters, and get the vote out. We welcome individuals as well as groups. If you are a member of a group that would like more information about the importance of working in swing states, check out our States Matter proposal and schedule a Lean Left presentation for your group. More information can be found here.

Pennsylvania

Help Recruit Candidates for PA House of Representatives: Democrats gained 13 more seats in the Virginia House of Delegates this year. How did they do it? They ran a candidate in every district, no matter how red. This not only brought out Democratic voters, but it also drained GOP money from competitive races and made Republican candidates have to defend terrible policies. 2026 is a chance for Pennsylvanians to increase the Democrats’ one-seat majority in the state House of Representatives. Lead PA needs researchers and callers now. Sound interesting? Sign Up Here.
