Meet The People's Slate - Our 2022 Wins

People’s Action congratulates the People’s Slate candidates all across the country who are newly elected to public office.

The People’s Slate is part of a People’s Action strategy to build people power and elect movement champions who will co-govern with our working-class members.

In the 2022 midterms, our movement politics program knocked on 1.4 million doors, made 2.7 million phone calls, and sent a million texts to support these candidates.

Each of these candidates was endorsed by one or more organizations that are part of People’s Action’s national network of 38 affiliate groups in 28 states. They are just a taste of the more than 300 races, up and down the ballot, where People’s Action threw down to support people’s champions.

In 2022 we helped elect nine candidates to federal office, with 107 down-ballot wins, and 75 candidates elected to state legislatures all across the country.

These newly elected officials join the hundreds of People’s Action-endorsed candidates who are already serving in office at every level of government. 

These candidates ran movement-politics, people-powered campaigns and will work to advance the People’s Platform once in office. 

All across the country, People’s Action members and candidates are reaching out across race, place and background to build a bigger ‘we,’ with our Long-Term Agenda in mind.

“People’s Slate electeds come from the multiracial working class, and will fight for our members, not greedy elites,” says Marta Popadiak, People’s Action’s Interim Deputy Director of Movement Politics.

 

People’s Action, together with our member groups in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Iowa, Maryland, North Carolina and more, knocked on 1 million doors and made 2 million phone calls to voters in the 2022 cycle.
