URGENT: Trump wants to personally review every exhibit at the Smithsonian museums in Washington, D.C. to ensure they match his whitewashed version of history.

This is a direct attack on Black history! Trump wants to ERASE Black history entirely!

MSNBC: Trump calls African American history museum divisive

We’re launching an URGENT grassroots petition to stand with the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C. to show the White House just how important the TRUE version of history is to us. Sign your name immediately >>

Team, Trump launched an all-out attack on the teaching and preservation of Black history:

→ He tried to ban books written by Black authors and books about Black history.
→ He tried to ban schools from teaching Black history.
→ He tried to ban federal agencies from observing Black History Month.
→ He said the Smithsonian museums focus too much on “how bad slavery was.”

Millions of people visit Washington, D.C. every year to learn about our nation's history. Black history is a critical part of our country's story that cannot be ignored. But Trump wants to completely WHITEWASH and ERASE Black history!!

Well we have a message for Trump: Black history IS American history. We will NOT let you erase us.

Please, add your signature to stand with the National Museum of African American History and Culture against Trump’s attacks. Show the White House that we will NOT allow them to erase Black history >>

SIGN NOW: STAND WITH NMAAHC >>

Thanks for speaking up,

Tuesday night was a political earthquake for Democrats, and the DLCC was on the front lines leading the charge.

🏛️ After we invested over $2,000,000 in Virginia, House Democrats shattered expectations by flipping at least 13 seats – marking the largest Democratic House majority in the state in nearly 40 years.

Virginians soundly rejected the Trump agenda that has raised prices and hurt working families, and the new Democratic trifecta in Virginia will serve as a strong bulwark against the chaos and dysfunction in D.C.

🏙️ The DLCC supported 12 Spotlight races across New Jersey, and Democrats handily won the state Assembly, expanding their majority to a supermajority.

Our victory in the New Jersey Assembly comes as Democrat Mikie Sherrill clinched the gubernatorial win, ensuring unified Democratic power can shield New Jersey from MAGA extremism.

⚖️ We made a six-figure investment in Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court races, and Tuesday night, we retained all three Democratic justices on the ballot, preserving a 5-2 Democratic majority.

Pennsylvanians sent a clear message to Republicans who are trying to take over the judiciary to keep themselves in power: you can’t escape accountability from the voters.

Republicans have been put on notice for 2026. Now, we must maintain the momentum from Tuesday night.

Our wins could not come at a more crucial time. As Trump and Republicans keep the federal government shut down, statehouses are where serious governing and decision-making are happening.

The leaders that voters are looking for – and the strategy needed to rebuild power at all levels of government – are rooted in the states.

I owe this entire grassroots team a huge thank you for fueling the DLCC’s work all year long. But our work doesn’t end once the dust settles from Election Day.

There are over a dozen special elections on the books, and there will be hundreds of legislative races on the ballot in 2026.

Can you make a $7 donation right now to help the DLCC defeat MAGA legislators and elect Democratic leaders who will combat Trump’s affordability crisis?

Thank you,

Heather
