On Sunday night, some of the biggest names in Hollywood joined this community on Zoom, lending their support to our work — grassroots fundraising for state legislative races. Nearly 2,000 donors joined us to power this game-changing effort — something that only happened because you have continued to work with us to draw attention to these critical state legislative races!

The States Project is an organization that believes state legislatures are the strongest force for change in the country. The Democratic-aligned group was founded by former New York State Senator Daniel Squadron in 2017 and is focused on winning governing majorities by making state legislative campaigns more effective and better-funded. The actor J. Smith-Cameron and author Melissa Walker are two members of the States Project team, and they're starting to see the fruits of their grass-roots efforts. Smith-Cameron and Walker joined Errol to discuss the States Project’s goals for this election year while explaining the power of state legislatures and how, unlike Congressional races, they usually don’t require massive fundraising for victory. Also, J. Smith-Cameron talked about her role on the smash hit television show “Succession” and her many years as a New York stage actor.
