"Not a PAC" with Charles Gaba

Charles Gaba is not a Super PAC, but he and his site Blue24.org could be.  Since the founder of ACAsignups.net added political fundraising to his activism in 2018, he has raised over $8 million to back Democratic candidates. That's more than many PACs; the big difference between Charles and a PAC is that he takes nothing. You can support his efforts. But if you give at Blue24.org the money goes directly to the candidate or committee you're backing minus any transaction fees. And that's not what PACs do! Charles epitomizes the earlyworm ethic that we think can help save democracy. He turned his passion for democracy into action. That helps other earlyworms take action and invite other earlybirds and normal people to do a little more to fight for our freedoms. He's even helping us raise money for State Supreme Court races, which will only become more money in the Dobbs era. Not everyone can be Charles, and not everyone needs to be. Thanks to his efforts, he makes what we all want for democracy a little easier. He inspires us with his commitment and by revealing how many people out there want to do more if they're just given a chance.
