“Young voters defeated Donald Trump, blocked the 2022 Red-Wave, and were the margin of error in every state across America.
This year, we'll need historic young voter turnout in every battleground election to ensure that far-right fascists never make it to power, and that progressive, pro-democracy candidates win at the ballot box.”

America stands at a crossroads. On one side, there’s Project 2025—a blueprint that threatens the foundations of our democracy, dismantles our institutions, and leaves everyday people behind. On the other, there’s an opportunity: a chance to rebuild trust, protect our future, and deliver a government that works for all of us, not just a few.

Youth Save Democracy is stepping up to fill the void. We’re not just reacting—we’re leading. Project 2029 is our call to action: a plan to safeguard democracy, strengthen our institutions, and tackle the issues that keep young people—and all Americans—up at night. This isn’t about playing defense. It’s about building a future we can believe in. Here’s how we do it.

Democracy isn’t a given—it’s a promise we have to keep.
Project 2029 starts by protecting the systems that make America work and fixing what’s broken.
Push for a restored and expanded John Lewis Voting Rights Act to stop voter suppression in its tracks—automatic voter registration, same-day registration, and an end to gerrymandering.
Make Election Day a national holiday and guarantee no one waits hours to cast a ballot.
Enforce a binding code of ethics.
No more shadowy conflicts of interest or unchecked power.
These reforms aren’t radical—they’re common sense.
That’s the democracy the American people deserve.

Defending democracy is step one.
Step two is proving it delivers.
Project 2029 pairs structural change with bold ideas to tackle the real-life struggles of young voters and families—healthcare, education, housing, jobs, and the cost of living.
This is how we bring people back to the table.
A public option for Medicare—affordable, accessible coverage for anyone who wants it, no questions asked.
Cap prescription drug prices and let Medicare negotiate directly with Big Pharma.
Insulin shouldn’t cost more than a week’s groceries.
Advocate for nationwide universal Pre-K to enhance early childhood education.

Each part reads different filings, so counts and totals can differ.
Direct PAC contributions and independent expenditures explicitly reported as support, by the party of the candidate they went to.
Spending against candidates is drawn on its own bar and left out of the support totals.
Contributions are reported money, not endorsements; a PAC giving to both parties is common.
Every contribution on line 23 of the committee’s own Schedule B, which is the filing its summary totals are built from. That line covers federal candidates, party committees and other political committees alike, so a super PAC funding other super PACs appears here rather than under candidate giving.

|---|---|---|
| Democratic candidates | 14 | $57.3K · 82% |
| Democratic party committees | 2 | $7.3K · 10% |
| Other PACs and committees | 1 | $5K · 7.2% |

By the state each contributor wrote on the filing. The FEC aggregates every Schedule A line together, so one committee or organization transfer can account for a whole state. Contributors who have given $200 or less this cycle are not itemized and cannot be placed on a map. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total.
