Warren, Porter to headline progressive fundraiser supporting seven swing state candidates

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Rep. Katie Porter (D-Calif.) are slated to headline a progressive virtual fundraiser for seven House candidates in swing states Wednesday.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) and Democrat Jamaal Bowman, who is running for Congress in New York, will also headline the Progressive Change Campaign Committee’s (PCCC) “Red to BOLD” virtual fundraiser.

It will focus on seven candidates looking to flip Republican House seats and on getting out the vote in swing districts to help elect Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.

he Democratic candidates Red to BOLD supports include Kara Eastman in Nebraska; Candace Valenzuela in Texas; Dana Balter in New York; Mike Siegel in Texas; Jon Hoadley in Michigan; Julie Oliver in Texas and Pam Keith in Florida.

Red to BOLD was officially launched earlier this week and, within hours, the PCCC said the seven candidates received more than $30,000 collectively with support from celebrities like Kerri Washington, Mark Ruffalo, Rosie O’Donnell and Alyssa Milano.
