The Organization Spent Over $2.2 Million to Help Dexter Win
(PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA) — Tonight, 314 Action Fund congratulates Dr. Maxine Dexter on her victory in Oregon’s Third Congressional District.
“Congratulations to Dr. Maxine Dexter on her incredible campaign and this win,” said Shaughnessy Naughton, President and Founder of 314 Action Fund. “Dr. Dexter’s expertise is much needed in Congress, where she’ll stand up against the GOP’s anti-science, anti-abortion agenda. She knows that to make meaningful change, we need to pass legislation that the facts, data, and science support.”
Naughton continued, “At a time where American women’s lives are at risk because of draconian abortion bans, it’s more crucial than ever to bring Democratic doctor’s voices and knowledge to Congress. Dr. Dexter will never choose partisanship over science and will always put Oregonians first. We’re so proud of her victory and we cannot wait to continue to fight alongside her to keep Americans safe and better their lives.”
314 Action Fund is at the forefront of the battle to flip the House this cycle. The organization is backing STEM challengers to flip Republican seats in AZ-01, CA-27, IA-01, NE-02, NY-22, and OR-05. The movement is powered by a grassroots community of over six million people working to elect scientists, doctors, and STEM professionals, up and down the ballot, who will use science and facts to address our most pressing issues like climate change and health care.
