Run with the WFP

The Working Families Party is regular people coming together to fight for a country that puts working people first—from lowering the cost of health care and housing to making groceries more affordable. And we're serious about building our party from the ground up.

We're launching Working Class Wins to recruit 1,000+ working-class candidates to run for local office in key districts across the country over the next few years. We welcome all backgrounds and experiences – teachers, firefighters, waitresses, delivery drivers, etc. We also want to hear from community members not sure about running for office, but excited to help find and elect working class candidates.

Some of the races we take on will be to elect Working Families Democrats, and some will be to elect independent Working Families Party candidates. But we know we can't wait for either of the major parties to save us, and we need leaders who come from our communities and will fight tooth-and-nail for our families.

Sign up to find out the basics of running for office, learn about WFP, and how to seek WFP's support. Signing up here does not guarantee WFP endorsement.

If you are an elected official interested in connecting with local WFP chapters, please fill out this form instead.

I believe that every person should be paid the true value of their work, billionaires and corporations should pay their fair share in taxes, and that wealth and status should not be allowed to influence our democracy.

I believe that every person should have the freedom to be who they are, without fear of discrimination or violence, no exceptions.

I am not already elected to office.
