We are a group of graduate students and young alumni organizing our peers to elect Joe Biden, defeat Donald Trump, and promote a bold progressive agenda for America's future. As our country's up and coming leaders, we believe that a Biden presidency is the first step towards rejecting hate, restoring decency, and revitalizing democracy.
We advocate for aggressive and immediate criminal justice reform, drastic action to reduce climate change, an economy that works for every American, healthcare as a fundamental human right, and immigration reform that supports our classmates from around the world.
All contributions go directly to the Biden campaign.

Two events this week (August 24)
Hope you had a lovely weekend basking in the glow of an inspiring Democratic National Convention! We wanted to let you know about two exciting events coming up this week.
The first is a free private screening of Dress Rehearsal, a 17-minute Crooked Media documentary about the Wisconsin "pandemic primary" and how voting might look in November. Following the event will be a candid discussion with the executive producer, Shomik Dutta, along with the Executive Director of the Wisconsin Democratic Party. All questions welcome! (5:30pm EST on Wednesday, August 26. Register here.)
The second is an event sponsored by Young Professionals for Biden, which will include Congresswomen Grace Meng (NY) and Susan Wild (PA) speaking with Ashley Allison, the National Coalitions ...Read more

We need to keep up the good work
On the eve of the Democratic convention, we are reminded yet again that we still have work to do. A recent CNN tracking poll shows VP Biden's lead closing to 50%-46%, even though his selection of Senator Harris as his running mate. That lead is even closer - 49%-48% - in the battleground states. Far too close for comfort, especially considering that Trump is doing everything he can to stop vote by mail and silence the voices of the majority of Americans that wants him out of office.
Can you chip in to help the campaign today? Think of it as your ticket to the convention. $70 gets 5 voters to the polls in a swing state, like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, or Michigan.

Some good news and some bad news
Good news: Young Leaders for Biden has passed $10k in donations. We've raised money from 14 states and 5 different schools. Every cent is going to ensure that Joe Biden is able to organize and communicate with voters ing the swing states he'll need to win this election.
Bad news: Donald Trump wants to cheat and steal this election. Politico reported today that he is considering directing the Postal Service not to deliver mail-in ballots. His lackey in charge of USPS just fired 23 executives in an attempt to cripple our voting systems in the middle of a pandemic.
Contributing to this campaign ensures every potential Biden voter turn out - so that if Trump strikes voters from the rolls and "misplaces" ballots, we still have enough votes to throw him out.
