The Democratic National Committee (DNC) announced Friday that it would be giving nearly $2.5 million in total grants to more than 30 state parties in an effort to ramp up organizing efforts as Election Day nears, rounding out the committee's goal of providing resources to all states and territories in the country.

“These dollars will go to reaching key constituencies, beefing up organizing operations, and giving our teams on the ground the tools they need to earn every vote in the final stretch before Election Day," DNC Chair Jaime Harrison said in a press release.

With less than six weeks to go until Election Day, Harrison added that the investment gives Democrats an "extra boost" for the campaign's "New Way Forward" agenda.

"The stakes couldn’t be higher, and this latest investment will give us an extra boost of momentum heading into November so that we can send Vice President Harris and Governor Walz to the White House, drive Democratic victories across the country, and pave a New Way Forward in all 50 states — red, purple, and blue alike," he wrote.

Some of the newest investments include grants to help down-ballot Democrats in Republican-controlled states, targeted investments specific to what will help in a particular state — like support for certain voting blocs — and hundreds of thousands of dollars aimed at supporting the hiring of Black, Asian American and Pacific Islander, Latino, youth and Native American organizers.

The press release noted that the committee has already invested thousands in several states including Florida, Idaho, Louisiana, Minnesota and Missouri.

Ken Martin, president of the Association of State Democratic Committees (ASDC), praised the committee's new effort, calling state parties the "backbone of the Democratic party."

“We’re thrilled to make history with this round of grant money to state parties by investing in all 57 states and territories," he said in the press release. "The work that state parties do every day on the ground is absolutely essential to our mission of reaching voters where they are and electing Democrats to office every election cycle."

"State parties are the backbone of the Democratic Party," Martin added.
