1. Investing in grassroots organizing is the best way to impact elections. This is what MVP does.
2. Youth and voters of color can swing the closest elections. MVP invests in these constituencies.
3. Turnout increases most when voters hear from people they know. This is what MVP funds.
4. Candidate campaigns end, win or lose. MVP partners build power year-round, year after year.
5. With early funding, MVP partners can maximize their reach, voter turnout, and policy wins.
6. MVP partners are organizing their communities. The best thing we can do is fund them.
