Until now, California Donor Table has been a largely invisible force behind key progressive wins and ensuring that those we help to elect remain accountable to communities of color once they’re in office.
CDT was proud to have developed California’s first No Cop Money Candidate Pledge. A number of candidates signed that pledge, including our endorsed 2020 general election (AD25) candidate Alex Lee.
California Democrats introduce legislation -- supported by Governor Newsom -- on police reforms that would ban police tactics used against suspects and protesters. Congress considers how to follow California’s lead on our police use-of-force bill -- led by CDT-endorsed Assemblymember Shirley Weber -- with the Justice in Policing Act of 2020.
The California Donor Table is a community of donors who pool and align investments in leaders, groups and systems that make lasting progressive political change beyond any single election cycle or issue campaign.
