Winning a Democratic House Majority in 2026 is NOT a Foregone Conclusion.
The path to winning a 2026 Democratic Senate majority is rough; if Democrats want control of any branch of federal government, winning the House is the best option.
Heading into the 2024 elections, Democrats needed to gain four seats to control the House.
What Happened?
Democrats flipped nine seats and Republicans flipped eight—Democrats need to gain three seats in 2026 to control the House.
How JFW helps win the House.
JFW provides a manageable way to engage in House races which collectively provide the greatest probability of winning a majority. With a single donation, donors directly support the six most vulnerable House members now for maximum impact.
Unlike most Democratic donor groups which support the House, JFW is not geographically-based or issues-based; it is winning-based.
House races cannot be successful if they rely solely on regional funding—Republicans know this, Democrats need to act accordingly.
JFW provides direct funding to the most vulnerable new Democratic House members early in the cycle so they can build formidable war chests and ward off challengers.
How JFW Works
With a single payment, a donation to JFW maximizes impact by directly supporting:
Now (2025): the six most vulnerable new Democratic House members.
Next year (2026): six (soon-to-be-announced) challengers with the greatest probability of flipping seats.
This offense/defense strategy will increase Democrats chances of shoring up our most targeted House members earlier in the cycle and flipping at least three seats.
