Fight like you live here.
Food & Water Action is fighting to protect the progressive
Democratic majority in Congress. We’re excited to be supporting the
candidates listed below in the November general election.
An Iowa state representative and professor of law, Christina Bohannon has earned the support of several progressive organizations by championing the needs of working families and farmers. She has fought factory farms, holding them accountable for the damage they inflict on the environment and communities like hers.
In Congress, she will take on the greedy corporations and price gouging, while pushing Iowa to lead in clean energy.
A voting rights attorney and labor activist, Chris DeLuzio brings to Congress his experiences protecting our elections and successfully organizing for the University of Pittsburgh Faculty union.
In Congress, he will fight egregious corporate power and stop corporations from buying political influence. To reach his vision for a world free of carbon emissions, he is committed to ramping up investments in clean energy sources.
Gabriel Vasquez brings his experience as a first-generation immigrant, small businessman, a protector of public lands, and a city councilmember to Congress.
Vasquez will fight for a just transition to clean energy that will create good-paying jobs and is committed to protecting public lands from fossil fuel exploitation. He also calls for his state, home to renowned research organizations, to lead the effort in new energy technologies and drought adaptation.
Nikki Budzinski has spent her career defending unions and workers. She led the fight for a $15 minimum wage in Illinois and worked on pandemic relief for working families with the Biden administration.
In Congress, she’ll advocate for robust investments in clean energy and for keeping oil drilling off public land. She calls for a just transition that provides good union jobs and empowers everyone to benefit, especially the communities suffering most from fossil fuel pollution.
