We’re facing the fight of our lives.

Hey there folks, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz here with an important message for you. Yesterday, Donald Trump took office – solidifying a GOP trifecta that will do his bidding alongside a Supreme Court packed with extremist judges. So here’s the truth: we're facing the fight of our lives this year. Our priority is now urgent and clear: We must put in the hard work to protect our rights, freedoms, and our way of life – work that Democratic governors like myself are ready to lead. But we can’t do it alone – we need your help. If you’re ready to protect our fundamental rights and freedoms by electing Democratic governors, will you chip in $3 – or more – before midnight tonight? Donate $3 There’s a lot of uncertainty right now as Donald Trump begins his first full day of his new term. However, no matter what comes our way – from extreme legislation and executive orders to chaotic political fights over personal grievances – I know that my role as a Democratic governor has not changed. Democratic governors are ready to be the last line of defense for our fundamental rights and freedoms. We will continue to invest in education, expand voting rights, safeguard reproductive freedom, and stand up for American families. If you live in a state with a Democratic governor, you've felt the difference – now more than ever, who your governor is matters. That’s why I need your help. There are 38 governors’ races this November and in 2026, including in the biggest battleground states like Virginia, New Jersey, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Nevada. The work starts now to build the foundation we need to win. So please, will you chip in $3 – or more – today to help us protect our blue firewall, elect Democratic governors, and defeat Republican extremism? Your gift will be instrumental in ensuring we have the resources to win this November, in 2026, and beyond.

Grateful, Tim Walz Governor of Minnesota   As Governor of Minnesota, former Chair of the Democratic Governors Association, and 2024 Vice Presidential nominee, Tim Walz has always fought for the bright future all Americans deserve.
