If elected President, Kamala Harris would be our first woman and first woman of color to serve as President. But she’s not the only one who would make history:

Dr. Herb Conaway would become the first Black doctor with the ability to vote on legislation in Congress. Dr. Kristin Lyerly would become the only pro-choice OB/GYN in either chamber of Congress. Janelle Bynum would become the first Black woman to represent Oregon in Congress. And Jacky Rosen would be the first computer programmer and one of the only Jewish women to be re-elected to the Senate.

These 4 incredible Democratic scientists would make history in another way: If they win their highly competitive races, Democrats are projected to flip the House and we would have defended the most vulnerable woman in the Senate (if we lose Jacky, Democrats are guaranteed to lose control of the Senate).

That’s why we’re asking if you will donate DIRECTLY to Herb, Kristin, Janelle, and Jacky. Each of these races is expected to be decided by single digits and your support will make or break these races.

Herb ConawayDr. Herb Conaway (NJ-3: OPEN) – Herb is running for an open House seat in New Jersey that was considered a ‘Safe Republican’ seat until Andy Kim flipped it blue. It is still considered a swing district and Herb is the perfect candidate to win it.

Herb is a practicing physician, medical professor, state legislator, and Veteran. If elected, he would become the first-ever Black doctor with the power to vote on bills in Congress in American history!

Dr. Kristin LyerlyDr. Kristin Lyerly (WI-SPECIAL: FLIP) – When Roe v. Wade was overturned, Kristin turned her anger into action. She personally risked her career and filed suit to personally sue and block the implementation of a total abortion ban in Wisconsin. SHE WON!

Now she’s on a mission to restore reproductive access in every single state. This is a GOP-held seat in a special election that Democrats were twice within 4 points of winning. If she is elected, she will be the only pro-choice OB/GYN in Congress.

Janelle BynumJanelle Bynum (OR-5: FLIP) – Janelle’s district is currently held by Republican Lori Chavez-DeRemer. In previous elections for the state legislature, Janelle beat Lori not just once but twice. Lori only won her previous election by 2 points and this is a district President Joe Biden won by nearly 10 points in 2020.

Janelle is currently being outspent by GOP outside groups. If elected, she would be the first Black woman to represent Oregon federally – and if Kristin and Janelle win these two House seats – Democrats are PROJECTED to flip control of the House.

Jacky RosenJacky Rosen (NV-SEN: DEM) – In 2018, we were proud to invest heavily to support Jacky Rosen in her successful effort to flip Nevada’s Senate seat blue. In doing so, she became the Senate’ first computer programmer, first woman in computer science, and one of the only Jewish women ever elected to the chamber.

Polling confirms she is the most vulnerable woman in the Senate up this year: Republicans came within 1% of winning Nevada’s Senate race in 2022 and half a dozen polls show she is tied with her Republican. It is mathematically impossible for Democrats to hold the Senate if we lose Jacky.

314 Action is the only national organization working to elect Democrats with backgrounds in science and medicine at ALL levels of government – from the Senate down to local school boards.

Since 2017, we’ve supported more than 500+ candidates and reached millions of swing voters on their behalf with our data-driven messaging campaigns. Our candidates led the charge to flip the House in 2018, the Senate in 2021, and a handful of state legislatures in 2022. Now, there are more scientists in office than at any point in U.S. history.

No one is better equipped to craft policy to address pressing issues like gun violence, climate change, healthcare reform, or restoring reproductive rights than scientific professionals. Recent polling confirms that scientific and medical professionals have some of the highest approval ratings and levels of trust among voters – Meaning our candidates are better positioned to win tough races and can cut through the partisan divide!

100% of our work is powered by individual donations and our average donation is just $19. We plan on supporting more Democratic scientists and medical professionals in virtually every state this election cycle than at any point in our history. With you by our side, we’ll defend our Senate majority, retake the House, keep the White House blue, and elect a historic wave of Democrats to state legislatures and local office.
